Ja Morant's health is a major concern for the Memphis Grizzlies as he exited Game 3 against the Oklahoma City Thunder due to a hip injury. Morant fell hard after being fouled by Luguentz Dort, resulting in him limping off the court after attempting two free throws. The Grizzlies had a commanding lead of 29 points when he left, with Morant contributing 15 points and 5 assists in just 16 minutes. His injury comes after he had already missed considerable time during the regular season due to various ailments, including a significant hip issue earlier this season.

As the Grizzlies advance in the playoffs, Morant's condition will be critical. They managed to lead without him, but his absence could impact their chances significantly. The Grizzlies will need to monitor his progress closely, as his health will be pivotal for any extended playoff run.
