Ja Morant Back In Action Thursday
2 years agoMemphis Grizzlies point guard Ja Morant (thigh) will be back from a one-game absence Thursday against Milwaukee. He was forced to sit out for a second time in four games on Monday but came through Wednesday's practice with no issues and Morant isn't listed on the injury report. Memphis' young star has averaged 27.7 points with 6.6 rebounds and 7.8 assists this season, and he will be looking to post a fourth consecutive double-double Thursday. Tyus Jones had another outstanding performance in a sport start Monday, but he will head back to the bench for Thursday's matchup. The 26-year-old remains a great streaming option in situations where Morant isn't able to play, but Jones' fantasy value is very limited with him in the lineup.
