Not sure I agree with those that say the suspension was too light. I think it's fine. Look at the list of the longest suspensions in history. If they suspended him for 41 games that would be more than what Javaris Crittenton got for bringing a gun into the locker room, more than Stephen Jackson when he fought a bunch of fans, Miles Bridges who assaulted his girlfriend, etc. I know flashing a gun on IG is a really bad PR look but it's not a crime that I'm aware of, while those other guys committed actual crimes. 25 games seems like enough. He's not eligible for any awards next season either since he won't be able to play 65 games. He's an idiot but not actually hurting people.
Good find. I was looking for the length of time for famous suspensions.
