Does the Grizzlies’ Ja Morant play against the Spurs? Latest injury update

The Memphis Grizzlies will face the San Antonio Spurs, and the availability of one of their key players is up in the air. Ja Morant is listed on the injury report with pain in right footas he dealt with things this offseason as well. When Morant is on the floor, the Grizzlies are one of the better teams in the league, and they’re still pretty good without him.

Morant has dealt with several injuries over the past two seasons, and hopefully this won’t become a regular occurrence for one of the league’s young, up-and-coming stars. It will be interesting to see how his availability looks closer to game time.

Ja Morant’s injury status against the Spurs

Ja Morant is listed as questionable against the Spurs, and it is uncertain whether he will be able to compete. The Grizzlies have seemed cautious about how they will manage Morant and his injuries this season, which is smart considering he’s young and a big part of their team. On the other hand, fans would love to see him in action, especially against Spurs. When these two teams met earlier this week, Morant may have had the slam dunk of the season against Victor Wembanyama, but it didn’t count.

after the game Morant talked about dunks it didn’t count.

“It was a different person at the rim,” Morant said. “I nailed a lot of people, bro. He doesn’t get a pass. If you’re on the edge, I’ll try you in that situation.”

Morant noted earlier in the season that he would no longer dunk so he could prioritize his health, but since then he has pulled off at least two dunks that have left fans in awe. At this point, Morant seems to be teasing the fans, or he just can’t help but dunk.

It would be ideal for Morant to be careful with his dunks and land them safely because there is a chance of injury if something goes wrong. Morant is one of the best point guards in the league, and every time he hits the floor, he shows what he’s capable of.

The Grizzlies have shown as a unit this year that when everyone is healthy, they can be hard to stop, as injuries prevented them from showing their true potential last season.
