Ja Morant is listed as questionable for the Memphis Grizzlies' crucial matchup against the Houston Rockets due to a lingering shoulder injury. Morant’s potential absence adds to Memphis’ injury woes,

Memphis Grizzlies star Ja Morant was added to the injury report on Friday morning. Morant is questionable to play against the New Orleans Pelicans due to an illness. Morant has missed 18 games this season while dealing with a string of injuries. The 18 missed games led to Morant being ineligible for All-NBA and other regular season awards.

Ja Morant struggled for most of Saturday night before putting the Minnesota Timberwolves away late in the fourth quarter.

Grizzlies head coach Taylor Jenkins gave an update on Morant's injury after they ruled him out of Friday's contest due to right foot soreness. "He's been nursing a foot sprain since the Houston home game," Jenkins said. "Last game against the Spurs, he got tangled up, had a little collision there with a Spurs player that really worsened it."

Grizzlies forward Jake LaRavia also deactivated his 'X' account on Tuesday. The Grizzlies (31-16) will be back in action on Thursday night against the Houston Rockets (8:30 p.m., TNT).
