Ja Morant Out for Season, Grizzlies Move On

Ja Morant Out for Season: Memphis Grizzlies Backcourt Options Emerge The Memphis Grizzlies star point guard, Ja Morant, will miss the rest of the 2025-26 season due to an elbow injury. Despite making progress, the team decided on a platelet-rich plasma injection, leading to his season-ending absence. Morant played only 20 games this year, averaging 19.5 points, 3.2 rebounds, and 8.1 assists per game. The Grizzlies, with a 24-47 record, have dropped 11 of their last 12 games and are out of playoff contention. The team has backcourt options like Ty Jerome and Jaylen Wells to fill the gap, as they prepare for the San Antonio Spurs next and Morants full recovery for the next season.
