When it comes to playing basketball at an elite level, Ja Morant is undoubtedly a phenomenal player. But in recent weeks, Morant has been caught in a plethora of controversies.
Morant has added yet another controversy to his name. Ja is under flames for steaming a video of where he looked like showing off a gun on Instagram Live. The video was allegedly shot in Glendale and has resulted in Morant being under investigation by Colorado police. The incident apparently took place at Shotgun Willie’s, which is known for the infamous death of Randall Wright in 2019.
“A source told ESPN the incident happened at Shotgun Willie’s, which bills itself as a ‘gentleman’s club’ in Glendale, Colo.”

Initially, it was believed that Morant was in a nightclub, however, as per Ramona Shelburne’s source, the Memphis Grizzlies superstar was in a strip club. This specific strip club definitely feels like a place full of bad news and it doesn’t put Morant in any better position.
What Happened At Shotgun Willie’s In 2019?
Shotgun Willie’s is a famous strip club in Glendale, Colorado. Back in 2019, the strip club became famous, but for all the wrong reasons.
According to a report by The Denver Post, Randall Wright got into a fight with another customer at the strip club. Bartender Derek Hendricks put Wright in a chokehold in order to stop his fight with the said customer.
The chokehold eventually led to Wright’s death and it opened up a murder trial against the bartender. However, the trial was later delayed due to the death of one of Shotgun Willie’s lawyers.
The reason behind it was the death of the lawyer Steve Long due to long drinking at the same club. Keeping the bad luck of the place in mind, Ja Morant may end up getting in trouble if proven guilty.
