After sitting out 10 games with a right calf strain, Morant made a stunning return on December 12 against the Utah Jazz, dropping 21 points, four rebounds, and 10 assists in just 25 minutes on a strict restriction, according to Rotowire and CBS Sports. The Grizzlies fell 130-126, but Ja looked like his explosive self, proving hes fully recovered from the calf issue per Fox Sports. Two nights later, on December 15 versus the LA Clippers, Morant tweaked his left ankle in the fourth quarter on a drive to the hoop, exiting with 3:40 left in a comfy Grizzlies win, as reported by The Commercial Appeal and Mark Medina of The Sporting Tribune. He tallied 12 points in that second game back, with coach Tuomas Iisalo easing him along, per The Item. The team planned to re-evaluate Tuesday, fueling hopes it was minor.
