Ja Morant injury update: Grizzlies star considered week-to-week with right shoulder sprain - CBSSports.com

Memphis Grizzlies guard Ja Morant is currently week-to-week due to a grade 1 AC joint sprain in his right shoulder, as confirmed by the team on Monday. The injury occurred during a game against the New Orleans Pelicans when Morant collided with Daniel Theis. Following this incident, he missed the game against the Oklahoma City Thunder, and it seems he will be sidelined for additional time.

Morant's shoulder issues have been a recurring concern, notably when he was ruled out for the remainder of the previous season due to a subluxation in the same shoulder. This season, he has played in only 20 of the 33 games, raising concerns due to his aggressive playing style and relatively light frame, making him vulnerable to injuries from hard fouls or awkward falls.

Despite Morant's absence, the Grizzlies have shown resilience, currently holding a 22-11 record and the No. 2 seed in the Western Conference. While the team's net rating drops when he is out, they have managed to maintain a solid performance, going 8-5 without him this season. The depth of the Grizzlies' roster, bolstered by the development of young players like Scotty Pippen Jr., has allowed them to remain competitive. The team is optimistic about Morant's return, hoping he will be healthy for the crucial spring playoffs.
