Ja Morant Fantasy Stats

Memphis Grizzlies point guard Ja Morant will continue to have his minutes monitored in Monday's matchup against the Los Angeles Clippers, Janis Carr of The Orange County Register reports. On Friday against the Utah Jazz, Morant returned from a 10-game absence and was limited to 25 minutes. He will likely have a similar workload on Monday. Even with the restriction, Morant recorded a double-double versus Utah, finishing with 21 points, 10 assists, four rebounds, and one block. Monday presents another favorable matchup for Morant, as the Clippers give up the 10th-most fantasy points this season to point guards.

Memphis Grizzlies guard Ja Morant (calf) will play on Friday versus Utah after missing the last 10 games because of a strained right calf. The 26-year-old hasn't had the best season, averaging 17.9 points and a career-low 16.7% shooting from behind the arc. Fortunately, he's at least amassed 7.6 assists and 1.0 steals to partially make up for it. Morant will presumably see less work in his first game back, although he should be added back into all fantasy lineups. His return likely means fewer minutes for Cam Spencer and Vince Williams Jr.

Memphis Grizzlies point guard Ja Morant (calf) has been upgraded to questionable on the injury report ahead of Friday's meeting with the Utah Jazz. Morant has missed 10 games due to a right calf strain, but he has been nearing a comeback and went through full practice on Thursday. This is a good sign that he will be able to return to the lineup. However, considering he has been out for nearly a month, Morant is unlikely to have a full workload against the Jazz. Vince Williams Jr. has been starting during Morant's absence and will be bumped back to the second unit on Friday if Memphis' star man makes a comeback. Cam Spencer also loses fantasy value with Morant's return.

Memphis Grizzlies guard Ja Morant (calf) is doubtful for Sunday's meeting with the Portland Trail Blazers. He's missed the last nine games because of a right calf strain. Although the 26-year-old probably won't return on Sunday from the lengthy stint on the shelf, it appears he has a chance to get back on the floor soon, possibly for Friday's clash with the Utah Jazz. In the meantime, Vince Williams Jr. remains the favorite to replace Morant in the rotation. Williams hasn't been the most productive scorer in his 10 starts this season, averaging 8.4 points. However, he's at least amassed 7.9 assists, 4.9 rebounds, and 1.0 steals when in the starting lineup.

Michael Wallace of the Grizzlies' official site reports that Memphis Grizzlies guard Ja Morant (calf) is now considered day-to-day after missing nine consecutive contests due to a Grade 1 right calf strain. The star point guard was active during parts of Thursday's practice, and his next chance to play comes Friday against the Clippers. However, Morant will have to get in a few full practices under his belt and realistically, he will likely return to the floor in mid-December.

Memphis Grizzlies point guard Ja Morant (calf) has been ruled out until the team can re-evaluate their star in two weeks. Morant suffered a Grade 1 right calf strain during Saturday's matchup with the Cavaliers. The 26-year-old is averaging just 17.9 points, 3.5 rebounds, 7.6 assists and one steal per game as the Grizzlies have started the season 4-10. Morant's shooting touch has been off this season, as the career 31% three-point shooter is hitting at just a 16.7% mark this season. Jaylen Wells, Cedric Coward and Cam Spencer could all see an increased role in the lineup with Morant sidelined.

Memphis Grizzlies point guard Ja Morant (calf) was limited to six minutes in Saturday's 108-100 loss to the Cleveland Cavaliers. Returning to action after missing one game due to an ankle problem, Morant lasted less than 10 minutes against Cleveland due to right calf soreness. Vince Williams Jr. took Morant's spot in the starting lineup for the second half, finishing the contest with eight points, four rebounds, five assists, and two steals in 27 minutes. Although Williams Jr. couldn't get it done offensively on Saturday, he will be an interesting fantasy piece if Morant has to miss additional time, especially with Ty Jerome (calf), Javon Small (toe), and Scotty Pippen Jr. (toe) all missing from the backcourt.

Memphis Grizzlies guard Ja Morant (ankle) is off the injury report and expected to start when the team visits the Cleveland Cavaliers on Saturday afternoon. Morant missed Wednesday's blowout loss to the Boston Celtics after head coach Tuomas Iisalo said the two-time All-Star injured his ankle during Tuesday's loss to the New York Knicks. Morant's struggles on the court have been much publicized. He's averaging 18.9 points, the lowest mark since his rookie season, along with 8.1 assists, 3.7 rebounds, and 1.1 steals in about 30 minutes per game.

Memphis Grizzlies point guard Ja Morant (ankle) will be sidelined for Wednesday's matchup with the Boston Celtics. Morant is dealing with soreness in his left ankle after tweaking it during Tuesday's 133-120 loss to the Knicks. Morant has averaged 18.9 points, 8.1 assists, 3.7 rebounds, and 1.1 steals in 30.8 minutes per contest across 11 games this season. Cam Spencer will likely start while the 26-year-old star point guard is out, while Jaren Jackson Jr. could see extra scoring opportunities during tonight's tilt.

Memphis Grizzlies point guard Ja Morant has been suspended by the team for one game because of detrimental conduct. Morant struggled badly in Friday's matchup against the Los Angeles Lakers, finishing with eight points on 3-for-14 shooting, and he was visibly upset after the game. "According to [the coaching staff], probably don't play me, honestly," Morant said postgame. "That's basically what the message was. It's cool." Morant also told reporters to "go ask the coaching staff" when asked about his struggles. As a result of the suspension, Morant won't be available for Sunday's contest against the Toronto Raptors. This will likely lead to increased roles for Javon Small and Cam Spencer.
