Ja Morant struggled for most of Saturday night before putting the Minnesota Timberwolves away late in the fourth quarter.

NBA fans haven't forgotten about Ja Morant. Though he played only nine games in 2023-24, Morant is off to a strong start this season and earned plenty of support in the first returns of NBA All-Star voting that were released on Thursday afternoon.

Grizzlies head coach Taylor Jenkins gave an update on Morant's injury after they ruled him out of Friday's contest due to right foot soreness. "He's been nursing a foot sprain since the Houston home game," Jenkins said. "Last game against the Spurs, he got tangled up, had a little collision there with a Spurs player that really worsened it."

Grizzlies forward Jake LaRavia also deactivated his 'X' account on Tuesday. The Grizzlies (31-16) will be back in action on Thursday night against the Houston Rockets (8:30 p.m., TNT).
