Ja Morant is a popular name ahead of the Feb. 5 NBA trade deadline, as the Grizzlies are reportedly listening to offers made for the guard.
However, Morant is now dealing with an elbow injury that could put a damper on some of the trade talks depending how severe it is. Morant landed on Memphis’ injury report on Thursday with a UCL sprain in his left elbow, putting him out at least for Friday’s contest vs. the Pelicans. The Grizzlies will be in action again against the Nuggets on Sunday, so we’ll see if Morant is available to compete in that game.
