Grizzlies head coach Taylor Jenkins gave an update on Morant's injury after they ruled him out of Friday's contest due to right foot soreness. "He's been nursing a foot sprain since the Houston home game," Jenkins said. "Last game against the Spurs, he got tangled up, had a little collision there with a Spurs player that really worsened it."

The Memphis Grizzlies are 26-15 despite star point guard Ja Morant playing just 24 games. Availability has been an issue for Morant at times in his NBA career,

Memphis Grizzlies star Ja Morant vowed last December to stop dunking in the name of self-preservation. After battling multiple injuries attributed to awkward landings and hard falls, Morant said that he was omitting dunks, a trademark part of his game.

Grizzlies announce Ja Morant is out tonight. But his absence also has big implications for All-NBA eligibility.Source: Twitter @mikecwright What’s the buzz on Twitter?

Grizzlies point guard Ja Morant didn't care that he dunked on Victor Wembanyama after being asked about it postgame.

Morant has had several injuries over the past two seasons, and hopefully, this doesn't become a regular thing for one of the young, budding stars in the league. It will be interesting to see what his availability looks like closer to game time.

Victor Wembanyama may be the single most imposing rim protector in NBA history. He's only in his second season, but his combination of elite athleticism for his size, stellar shot-blocking instincts and absurd eight-foot wingspan makes him a nearly impenetrable obstacle for drivers at the basket.

The Memphis Grizzlies defeated the San Antonio Spurs on the road Friday night, 140-112, without Ja Morant, who sat out due to right foot soreness. He has played in 24 of the Grizzlies first 42 contests on the season.

Desmond Bane shared what makes the Grizzlies work without Ja Morant and why fans saw some surprise dunks in a win over the Spurs.

Memphis Grizzlies star guard Ja Morant won’t be taking any 2024-25 NBA regular season awards. By sitting out the 140-122 win over the San Antonio Spurs Friday (17/1), Morant missed his 18th game in the season so far. According to the NBA rules players must have at least 65 under their belt to be eligible for individual trophies.
