Ja Morant To Miss Time, Considered "Week-To-Week"
2 days agoMemphis Grizzlies guard Ja Morant (shoulder) was diagnosed with a Grade 1 AC joint sprain. He was injured in Friday's win over the New Orleans Pelicans. Unfortunately, the news isn't good, with the 25-year-old now considered "week-to-week." Morant has had a down year, averaging 21.2 points. It's also not ideal, considering he underwent season-ending shoulder surgery in 2023-24. With that in mind, Desmond Bane should lead the way on the scoring end while Morant is sidelined. But players like Scotty Pippen Jr., averaging 14.6 points, 6.2 assists, and 1.4 steals in 14 starts during the 2024-25 campaign, Jaren Jackson Jr., and Jaylen Wells could all see an increase in fantasy production.
