DENVER — Memphis GrizzliesWould like All-Star Guard Ja MorantYou must play at the very least once per season.
The team’s medical staff will make the final decision about Morant’s return.
Coach Taylor Jenkins of Memphis said, “He’s doing fantastic.” “All signs are going in a good direction, but he is definitely getting closer.”
Jenkins provided an update on Morant’s status just before the Grizzlies’ last road game at Denver. After sustaining a right knee injury against Atlanta on March 18, the Grizzlies’ leading scorer has been out of action for eight games. He was also declared out against the Nuggets.
Jenkins stated that the Grizzlies have increased Morant’s work in the last week and will continue to do so day by day.
Jenkins stated, “He did 5-on-5 in the first time today, so it’s really encouraging.” “He (he) responded well afterwards we’ll be seeing how he responds (Friday), obviously, as I go into this back to back home.”
Memphis’s leading scorer is Morant, who averages 27.6 points per game. He was injured in his left knee and missed 12 games.
The Grizzlies were already No. The Grizzlies are the No. 2 seed in West. Two of their last three wins can set a franchise record for wins in a single season. They conclude the regular season by visiting New Orleans on Saturday, before playing Boston on Sunday.
Jenkins stated that they would love to play at least one match with their entire contingent before the playoffs. But health is even more important.
Jenkins stated, “If that’s something that’s not the recommendation of the physician team, then we don’t believe that’s smartest move, so we won’t make it.”
