Ja Morant has a sprained right shoulder and will be considered week to week, the Memphis Grizzlies said Monday. Morant was hurt Friday when he crashed into a hard, but legal, screen set by Daniel Theis during the third quarter of the Grizzlies' 132-124 victory in New Orleans.

Ja Morant diagnosed with right AC joint sprain injury, which occurred during the Grizzlies' game against the Pelicans on December 27.

Morant played in just nine games in the 2023-24 season, with the Grizzlies then finishing the season with a 27-55 record. In the 2024-25 season, Morant was getting back in his groove — but now, he's once again dealing with an injury.
