Grizzlies' Ja Morant: Suspended for Sunday
Morant received a one-game suspension for conduct detrimental to the team and won't play in Sunday's game against the Raptors, Shams Charania of ESPN reports.
Morant struggled in Friday's loss to the Lakers and appeared visibly frustrated with the coaching staff after the game. Now, the star point guard will be held out of Sunday's contest. With the 26-year-old sidelined, Javon Small and Cam Spencer are candidates for increased roles. Morant has struggled with efficiency through six regular-season games, shooting 40.6 percent from the field and 15.6 percent from beyond the arc. He's averaging 20.8 points, 6.7 assists and 3.3 rebounds in 28.7 minutes per game.

Grizzlies' Ja Morant: Nails game-winner against Suns
Morant generated 28 points (10-19 FG, 3-8 3Pt, 5-5 FT), eight rebounds, seven assists and two steals across 32 minutes of Wednesday's 114-113 win over the Suns.
Morant more than doubled his previous season high in rebounds, which previously stood at three. He's also logged at least six assists in four straight contests. The star point guard hit the game-winning shot with 7.3 seconds left, knocking down a floater from inside the painted area. Through five games in 2025-26, Morant is averaging 23.4 points, 6.6 assists, 3.8 rebounds and 1.0 steals.

Morant finished with a team-high 23 points and was one of six Memphis players to reach double figures. He also led the Grizzlies in assists. However, the star point guard struggled with efficiency and had another rough night from beyond the arc. Through four regular-season outings, he's averaging 22.3 points, 6.5 assists and 2.8 rebounds per game, shooting 41.1 percent from the field and 11.1 percent from three-point range.

Grizzlies' Ja Morant: Posts 19 and 8 in win over Pacers

Morant shot below 40 percent from the field for the second straight outing after finishing 13-for-20 (65 percent) in Memphis' season opener. However, he made all nine of his free-throw attempts and led all players in assists with eight. Morant and the Grizzlies head out for a two-game road trip Monday when they visit the Warriors, followed by a matchup with the Suns on Wednesday.

Grizzlies' Ja Morant: Struggles in loss Friday
Morant finished Friday's 146-114 loss to the Heat with 12 points (4-16 FG, 0-4 3Pt, 4-4 FT), two rebounds and six assists over 22 minutes.
Morant played through an apparent ankle injury, an issue that may have contributed to his poor play. He shot a woeful 4-for-16 from the field as the Grizzlies were soundly beaten. Memphis will have to back up Saturday against the Pacers. With his ankle continuing to bother him, managers may want to keep an eye on the injury report ahead of that game.

Grizzlies' Ja Morant: Iffy for Friday
Morant (ankle) is questionable to play in Friday's game against the Heat, Damichael Cole of The Memphis Commercial Appeal reports.
Morant had a monster game in the season opener, dropping 35 points against the Pelicans. However, he's dealing with an ankle injury that could keep him sidelined for the first game of a back-to-back situation. If that happens, the team will likely turn to Javon Small and Cam Spencer to help shoulder the load in the backcourt.

Grizzlies' Ja Morant: Drops 35 points against Pels
Morant generated 35 points (13-20 FG, 2-6 3Pt, 7-8 FT), three rebounds, three assists and one steal over 29 minutes in Wednesday's 128-122 win over New Orleans.
Morant started the 2025-26 season on a high note, delivering a game-high 35 points while shooting 65 percent from the field. The 26-year-old guard scored 35 or more points in just three of his 50 regular-season appearances last season, and he attempted 22 or more field goals in each of those contests. Morant looks to be completely over the ankle injury he suffered in early October.

Head coach Tuomas Iisalo said Morant (ankle) won't play in Friday's preseason game against the Heat but "is progressing really well" and participated in the team's shootaround, Michael Wallace of the Grizzlies' official site reports.

Grizzlies' Ja Morant: Expects to return by Opening Night
Morant (ankle) expects to be ready for Opening Night, Damichael Cole of The Memphis Commercial Appeal reports.
Morant scoffed at the idea that he won't be healthy in time for the start of the regular season, which is an encouraging sign. The star guard will still be evaluated on a week-to-week basis up until the Oct. 22 season opener against the Pelicans, but it appears as though he'll be ready to roll by then. If not, Ty Jerome and Scotty Pippen will likely share the minutes at point guard.

Grizzlies' Ja Morant: Considered week-to-week
Morant is considered week-to-week with a sprained left ankle he suffered at Sunday's practice, Damichael Cole of The Memphis Commercial Appeal reports.
This is a tough blow for Morant with Opening Night looming. This news rules Morant out for at least three preseason contests, and it sounds like he'll be re-evaluated on a weekly basis. If Morant's injury lingers into the regular season, the Grizzlies could turn to Ty Jerome, who was a priority for them in free agency.
