Is Ja Morant playing tonight vs. Warriors?
Morant is listed as out on the Grizzlies' official injury report. The team announced on Wednesday that Morant would continue to remain away from the team for at least the next four games.
On Tuesday, Memphis coach Taylor Jenkins told reporters that putting a timetable on Morant's return would be "disrespectful."
"It's a healing process, so if everyone expects something to change overnight, we've got to [do] due diligence and [be] respectful on that," Jenkins said. "We're talking about Ja being in a better place personally and also professionally."
The NBA is currently investigating the incident, which took place in Glendale, Colo. It's unclear if Morant will face a suspension.
Through 53 games this season, Morant is averaging 27.1 points, 8.2 assists and 6.0 rebounds while shooting 46.3 percent from the field.
