Memphis recorded a second straight win over Dallas tonight (between Monday and Tuesday), but its star Jay Morant is still out since he was recorded holding a gun after the team's game.
Now in the US it is being reported that Morant has begun a "counseling" process in Florida and as of now there is still no date for returning to the courts.
According to the report Morant himself sought help and assistance to better deal with pressure and to deal with his mental health, which currently prevents him from playing with Memphis. The team itself has already announced that Jah will be out at least until after Wednesday's game against Miami, but there is no specific date for his return.Memphis is also trying to help Morant, who recorded himself on Instagram carrying a gun at a Denver nightclub on March 4.
No return date yet.

Morant was a two-time All-Star and was named Rookie of the Year.
He is considered one of the best players in the league and before the victory over Dallas his coach Taylor Jenkins said that Jeh has completely dedicated himself to the process and is ready for what happens after the next two games.
"He is taking the time and personal responsibility to take care of himself so that he can return to our team in a better state," added Jenkins, "I will not comment further on the matter until there are further updates."
"He has a very high motivation than I was impressed by the conversations with him," added his teammate Tyus Jones, "there are times in life when you have to put yourself before family, before basketball and before many things. I don't know if many people acted like that before him."
