Is Ja Morant playing tonight against OKC Thunder? Latest on Grizzlies superstar's availability amid injury woes (Mar. 5)

Ja Morant is doubtful to play for the Memphis Grizzlies in their high-profile matchup against the OKC Thunder on Wednesday. He is listed as "questionable" on the team's injury report due to a right deltoid contusion, ahead of the game against MVP frontrunner Shai Gilgeous-Alexander.

The former Murray State point guard has missed the Grizzlies' last two games because of the same injury. His most recent appearance was on February 28 in a 114-113 loss to the New York Knicks, where Morant posted 25 points, four rebounds, seven assists and one steal in 31 minutes.

Memphis has struggled recently, losing their last three games. The team will need a healthy and available Ja Morant to get back on track. Under Taylor Jenkins, the Grizzlies have slipped to fourth place in the Western Conference with a 38-23 record through 61 games.
