The Oklahoma City Thunder will lock horns against Memphis Grizzlies on Thursday, March 27th at the Paycom Center. The talking point from the Grizzlies point of view would be the availability of Ja Morant, whether he suits up for the clash against Thunder or not.
Will Ja Morant play against Oklahoma City Thunder?
The 25-year-old point guard has been ruled out from the clash against the Thunder due to a left hamstring strain. He last featured on March 14 against the Cleveland Cavaliers, where he played for 35 minutes and delivered an impressive performance in a 124-133 loss. In that match, he recorded 44 points, 8 rebounds and 7 assists. He has missed every clash since then.
His absence has impacted the team severely as the Grizzlies have a record of 2-3 during this span. Scotty Pippen Jr. will be taking his spot in the starting lineup. He has delivered some crucial performances as he averages 15 points, 5 rebounds and 7.5 assists in the four games that he has played due to Morant missing.
The Grizzlies will be without Brandon Clarke, Marvin Bagley III and Zyon Pullin for the highly anticipated clash against the Thunder. The Grizzlies are fifth in the Western Conference with a record of 44-28 and are on a one-game winning streak. The Thunder are first in the Western Conference with a record of 60-12 and are on a seven-game winning streak.
