In March 2023, after the away game against Denver Nuggets, Morant was suspended for 8 games due to off-court problems, and then Morant was suspended for 25 games in the following 2023-2024 season due to the same problem.

The suspension clause also clearly states that he may be in back in the game next year, which will be a series of requirements and conditions. The young all-star player now faces a difficult test. He will not only win back the trust of the team and teammates, but also win back the trust of the whole league.

According to statistics, Morant's suspension time is the second longest since Xiao Hua took charge of the NBA in 10, second only to Miles Bridges's 30 games, and tied for the second longest with five players who were suspended for 25 games for doping.
