Ja Morant's Status vs. Indiana Pacers Revealed

After a perfect return from suspension against the New Orleans Pelicans, Memphis Grizzlies star Ja Morant is ready for his first home game of the season on Thursday night. Hitting the game-winning layup in his first game back, Morant reminded the NBA world that he is still one of the very best players in the NBA. Looking to put on a show for his home crowd on Thursday, Morant will be bringing that energy to Memphis.

The Grizzlies have released their injury report for this game, and Morant is not listed, meaning he is good to go. After a 25-game absence, Morant was the first of a few key Grizzlies to make a return to the court. Both Marcus Smart and Luke Kennard are also nearing returns, which will give the Grizzlies two more key rotation pieces to put around Morant.

While Memphis still has quite the uphill battle to climb, they have to feel good about how Morant looked in his first game back. Surrounding that level of play with a healthy Smart and Kennard gives the Grizzlies a very solid rotation that was expected to be playoff caliber prior to injuries.

This game against the Pacers will be a good test for Memphis, as Indiana has some talented players, especially at the point guard position in Tyrse Haliburton.
