Police have not found enough evidence to charge anyone for a crime after a video appeared to show the Memphis Grizzlies player Ja Morant holding a gun in a Colorado nightclub.

The All-Star guard, 23, apologised following a live broadcast on his Instagram page on Saturday.

He has been suspended for "at least two matches" and the NBA is investigating.

However police said they were "not able to determine that probable cause existed for the filing of any charges".

The Glendale Police Department confirmed the incident occurred in Glendale, near Denver, and that it had been made aware of "a prominent NBA player singing and holding what appeared to be a firearm by the butt end of a gun".

It is legal to carry a gun in Colorado with some exceptions, including possession while under the influence of alcohol.

The incident occurred hours after the Grizzlies lost 113-97 to the Denver Nuggets.

Afterwards Morant said he took "full responsibility", adding that he would "get help".

Morant is averaging 27.1 points and 8.2 assists per game this season and made his second consecutive All-Star Game appearance last month.

In Morant's absence the Grizzlies, second in the Western Conference, lost to the Los Angeles Clippers on Sunday. They play the Los Angeles Lakers on Tuesday.
