Is Ja Morant playing today against Indiana Pacers? Latest on Memphis Grizzlies superstar's availability (Dec. 1)

Ja Morant is set to lead the Memphis Grizzlies in their matchup against the Indiana Pacers on Sunday. The star point guard is not listed on the team's injury report and played a key role in the Grizzlies' 120-109 victory over the New Orleans Pelicans on Friday. Morant showcased his brilliance, finishing with 27 points, three rebounds and seven assists in 29 minutes.

The two-time All-Star has missed a significant portion of the season, appearing in just 10 of the Grizzlies' 20 games. Despite his absence, Memphis has maintained an impressive record. Under head coach Taylor Jenkins, the team holds a strong 13-7 record and sits third in the Western Conference standings.

After the win against the Pelicans, Morant emphasized the importance of defending their home court and maintaining their winning momentum.

"This the crib," Morant said. "Our family in here cheering us on. We feed off the energy. We gotta protect home court at all cost. It's a must we come out here and deliver and get a win."

The Pacers, struggling with inconsistency this season, face a tough challenge in taking on a focused Morant on the Grizzlies' home court.
