The Memphis Grizzlies’ Ja Morant is a key player in the team’s success and his availability for Game 2 against the Los Angeles Lakers will be decided closer to tip-off. Morant suffered a left ankle sprain in Game 1 of the series, leaving his status for Game 2 uncertain.
Morant is a dynamic point guard who was named the NBA Rookie of the Year for the 2019-2020 season. He averaged 17.6 points, 3.5 rebounds, and 7.1 assists per game this season and is a key part of the Grizzlies’ offense. His presence on the court is a major factor in the team’s success and his injury could have a significant impact on the outcome of the series.
The Grizzlies have not yet released any official information regarding Morant’s status for Game 2. However, they have said that they will make a decision closer to tip-off. This means that fans and players alike will have to wait until just before the game to find out if Morant will be available to play.
If Morant is unable to play in Game 2, the Grizzlies will have to rely on their other players to step up and fill the void. His absence could be a major blow to the team’s chances of winning, but it could also provide an opportunity for other players to showcase their skills.
Regardless of Morant’s availability for Game 2, the Grizzlies are sure to put up a fight against the Lakers. They have a talented roster and are capable of winning without Morant, but his presence on the court would certainly give them an edge. Fans will have to wait until closer to tip-off to find out if he will be able to play, but either way, it is sure to be an exciting game.
