As the return of Ja Morant, star of the Memphis Grizzlies, to the basketball court nears, so does his impending legal obligation.

An ESPN report by Baxter Holmes stated that the 24-year-old has been issued a subpoena to appear at an immunity hearing for a civil lawsuit in Memphis.

Morant is facing a lawsuit from Joshua Holloway, who alleged that Morant punched him 12 or 13 times during a pickup basketball game, causing him physical harm. This incident has led to a legal battle that is set to take place from Dec. 11 through Dec. 13 this year.

Given the high-profile nature of the case and its potential impact on Morant’s NBA career, this situation has captured the attention of sports fans and legal analysts alike.

Furthermore, the involvement of other witnesses and law enforcement officials adds layers to this complex and ongoing legal saga.

With the upcoming testimony coinciding with Morant’s eligibility to return to the Grizzlies, the resolution of this case could have significant implications for his future in the NBA.

So, as the legal proceedings unfold, the basketball world awaits the outcome of this compelling and controversial situation involving one of its rising stars.
