Ja Morant's hip injury has sidelined him for Game 4 against the Oklahoma City Thunder, a significant setback for the Memphis Grizzlies as they trail the series 0-3. Morant suffered the injury during a fall in Game 3, leading to an emotional atmosphere as the Grizzlies could not maintain their commanding 27-point lead post-injury. Averaging 18.3 points and five assists in the playoffs, Morant's absence will be felt dearly by Memphis. The team has fared moderately well without him this season, boasting a 17-14 record in games he missed, but facing a potential closeout game against a strong Thunder squad poses a formidable challenge.
