Grizzlies announce Ja Morant is out tonight. But his absence also has big implications for All-NBA eligibility.Source: Twitter @mikecwright What’s the buzz on Twitter?

Memphis Grizzlies star guard Ja Morant won’t be taking any 2024-25 NBA regular season awards. By sitting out the 140-122 win over the San Antonio Spurs Friday (17/1), Morant missed his 18th game in the season so far. According to the NBA rules players must have at least 65 under their belt to be eligible for individual trophies.

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 point guard Ja Morant didn't care that he dunked on Victor Wembanyama after being asked about it postgame.

Memphis Grizzlies star Ja Morant vowed last December to stop dunking in the name of self-preservation. After battling multiple injuries attributed to awkward landings and hard falls, Morant said that he was omitting dunks, a trademark part of his game.
