The Memphis Grizzlies are set to face the Denver Nuggets at home, continuing their stretch without star point guard Ja Morant. Head coach Taylor Jenkins shared that Morant's recent imaging results were positive, but he remains week-to-week due to injury. Similarly, Zach Edey is also dealing with an ankle issue.
Before his injury, Morant was averaging 20.6 points, 5.0 rebounds, and 9.1 assists in eight games. The Grizzlies currently hold the seventh seed in the Western Conference with an 8-6 record.
In their last matchup against the Nuggets, the Grizzlies secured a 105-90 victory, led by Jaren Jackson Jr.'s strong performance. The team will look to build on this as they prepare for their next game against the Philadelphia 76ers.
