Memphis Grizzlies vs Philadelphia 76ers Injury Reports for March 6

The Memphis Grizzlies might be the most unfortunate team in terms of injuries this season. They started the season relatively healthy but were without Ja Morant due to his suspension.

Morant returned to play nine games before a shoulder injury put him out for the rest of the campaign. More players began dropping like flies like Desmond Bane and Marcus Smart, forcing the Grizzlies to use G League players and 10-day contracts.

Meanwhile, the Philadelphia 76ers also started the season healthy before Joel Embiid went down with an injury. The Sixers were among the best teams in the league with Embiid but has been mediocre since he underwent surgery to repair a meniscus tear.
