Memphis Protect Ja Morant He will not play in game 4 of the Grizzlies series against Oklahoma City Thunder On Saturday, while he is still dealing with a hip bruise from game 3.
Tuomas IISALO asserted the absence of Morant as it was available less than two hours before the match. Isalo said Morant avoided serious injury.
Morant has been listed as doubtful since the initial injury report on Friday afternoon. Memphis will try to avoid sweeping in the first round of the western conference without one of its largest offensive weapons.
Morant was in a quick break with his teammate Scoti Beben Junior Late in the second quarter when he jumped and hit at the feet Luguentz Dort. The connection led to Morant the court without breaking his fall.
The play was reviewed, but it was considered a common mistake on Dort. Morant began to go to the treasury room, but he returned to photograph free throws – if he could return to the game – missing. That left Grizlies by 67-40, a feature of 29 points a few points ago.
Morant is no longer, Grizlies was 63-31 in the second half, and continued the second largest collapse in the history of the American Professional League qualifiers.
