Grizzlies’ Ja Morant leaves game vs. Nets in wheelchair after spraining left ankle; to undergo MRI Tuesday

Ja Morant’s aggressive playing type is a part of what makes him such a special talent, but it additionally makes him inclined to injuries. A few scary falls led to some missed video games final season, and in Monday’s sport towards the Brooklyn Nets, Morant suffered what the team is describing as a sprained left ankle. Thankfully, there is no such thing as a fracture, in accordance with ESPN’s Adrian Wojnarowski, and the team is now awaiting outcomes on an MRI scheduled for Tuesday.

The injury got here with 2:43 left within the second quarter and the Grizzlies main the Nets 51-45. Timothe Luwawu-Cabarrot went up for a jumper, and Morant, flying in from behind him, made a wild try at blocking his shot. Instead, he landed on Luwawu-Cabarrot’s foot, seemingly twisting his ankle. He instantly hopped off of the court in significant ache and had to be taken again to the locker room in a wheelchair.
