Despite facing setbacks such as fines and suspensions, the young star point guard, Morant, showed his skill through his incredible performance this season.However, his off-court controversy, specifically a video in which he appeared to brandish a gun on Instagram Live, has put his availability for the start of the next season in jeopardy.NBACentral@TheNBACentralAccording to the @TheAthletic , Acquaintances of Ja Morant aggressively confronted members of the Pacers traveling party and later someone in a slow-moving SUV — which Morant was riding in — trained a red laser on them (Full story: theathletic.com/4157284/2023/0…)174032413According to the @TheAthletic , Acquaintances of Ja Morant aggressively confronted members of the Pacers traveling party and later someone in a slow-moving SUV — which Morant was riding in — trained a red laser on them 😳(Full story: theathletic.com/4157284/2023/0…) https://t.co/RkJ5bra4I3With Morant likely to miss a significant portion of the upcoming season, the Grizzlies must now address the challenges this presents to their roster and their window of contention.Morant not being there to help with both scoring and playmaking leaves the team with a gap, as he averaged an impressive 26.2 points and 8.1 assists per game in the previous season. Additionally, the team will need to consider the potential luxury tax implications of any roster moves they make to compensate for Morant's suspension.StatMuse@statmuseJa Morant in the 2022 playoffs: 27.1 PPG9.8 APG8.0 RPG2.0 SPGPredict his statline tonight.92141Ja Morant in the 2022 playoffs: 27.1 PPG9.8 APG8.0 RPG2.0 SPGPredict his statline tonight. https://t.co/TBRHfGndygThe most pressing question arises at the point guard position. While Tyus Jones is a viable option to fill in for Morant, his inconsistent playoff performances have raised concerns. As a result, the Grizzlies may explore trading Jones to acquire a starting small forward, further reshaping their roster to accommodate Morant's absence.The absence of their star point guard will undoubtedly shape their offseason moves and force them to explore alternative avenues to maintain their competitiveness.
