Ja Morant, the Memphis Grizzlies superstar point guard, has been battling back-to-back injuries that threaten his season just as the team claws for playoff positioning. After missing 10 games with a right calf strain, he returned Friday against the Utah Jazz, dropping 21 points and 10 assists in 25 restricted minutes despite some rust, according to CBS Sports and RotoWire reports. But the comeback hit a snag Monday versus the Clippers, where he tweaked his left ankle late in the fourth quarter on a drive to the basket, exiting early after 12 points, four assists, and three boards, per Michael Wallace of the Grizzlies official site and Damichael Cole of the Memphis Commercial Appeal. That sprain sidelined him Wednesday in Minnesota, listed as doubtful after shootarounds on crutches, with RotoWire noting hes out Saturday against Washington but eyeing Mondays Thunder clash. CBS Sports confirms hes one of nine Grizzlies sidelined, boosting minutes for Vince Williams and Cam Spencer, whos also out personally.

Austin Rivers stirred trade chatter on Acast podcasts, claiming Morant needs a fresh start away from Memphis drama, but thats pure speculation with no confirmed deals.
