The Grizzlies should have Ja Morant back in action any day now. Via the Memphis Commercial Appeal:
Ja Morant addressed his Memphis Grizzlies teammates and coaches Monday after serving an eight-game suspension.
Since the Grizzlies didn’t having a morning shootaround, Morant took part in a playgroup, which is when the team gets low-minute players and assistant coaches to simulate game action through five-on-five play.
“Trying to get as much full-court action as possible, that was the main goal,” head coach Taylor Jenkins said.
The Grizzlies are “hopeful” that Morant can return Wednesday, Jenkins said. Memphis will practice Tuesday, where Morant will get his first work with the full team ahead of Wednesday’s home game vs. the Rockets.
