Memphis Grizzlies guard Ja Morant (knee) has been ruled out for Wednesday's Game 5 against the Golden State Warriors. This doesn't come as a surprise since Morant missed their last contest and was doubtful for Wednesday. Tyus Jones should remain in the starting five and be an interesting DFS option. Morant could very well miss the rest of the playoffs, which is going to make it extremely difficult for Memphis.

Memphis Grizzlies guard Ja Morant (knee) has officially been ruled out for Monday's postseason showdown against the Warriors. The superstar injured his knee during the Game 3 loss on Saturday, although the team has remained mum regarding the severity. It's unknown if Morant will be back on Wednesday for Game 5. In the meantime, Tyus Jones will take his spot in the lineup for Game 4, as expected, with the 26-year-old averaging 12.7 points, 6.6 assists, and 1.1 steals while shooting 40% from deep throughout 23 starting lineup appearances during the regular season.

Memphis Grizzlies guard Ja Morant (knee) isn't expected to suit up for the postseason matchup against Golden State on Monday night. The superstar injured his right knee late in the fourth quarter during Game 3 and underwent further testing. Yet, the team remains mum on his condition, although sources indicate it would be surprising to see him out there. Nonetheless, if Morant is officially ruled out ahead of Game 4, Tyus Jones will likely take his place in the rotation. Jones averaged 12.7 points, 6.6 assists, 1.1 steals, and shot nearly 40% from deep across 23 starts during the regular season, so he would see a ton of interest from DFS participants in all formats.

Memphis Grizzlies guard Ja Morant (knee) exited Saturday's postseason matchup against the Warriors. During garbage time late in the fourth quarter, the superstar tweaked his right knee and was taken back to the locker room for further evaluation. He'll likely undergo more testing ahead of Game 4, but it appears there's a real chance he could miss time moving forward. If that happens, it would be an unfortunate blow for the Grizzlies, especially since the 22-year-old was averaging 26.3 points, 10.1 assists, and 1.9 steals throughout the playoffs heading into Game 3. Nonetheless, there should be an update on Morant's status over the next few days. Still, if he can't suit up on Monday night, Tyus Jones would probably take his spot in the starting lineup. Unquestionably, Jones would also be a popular value option for DFS managers.

Memphis Grizzlies point guard Ja Morant was phenomenal in the team's 106-101 victory over the Golden State Warriors in Game 2 of the Western Conference Semifinals. He scored a playoff career-high 47 points while shooting 15-for-31 from the field and 12-for-13 from the free throw line. He connected on five of his 12 three-point attempts and also racked up eight assists, eight rebounds and three steals. The 22-year-old superstar is clearly a major problem for the Warriors as he dropped 34 points in Game 1. We'll see if he can keep rolling in Game 3, which will take place in San Francisco on Saturday.

Memphis Grizzlies guard Ja Morant did everything he could during Sunday's Game 1 loss to the Golden State Warriors. The young guard was one rebound shy of a triple-double during their one-point loss. Morant finished with 34 points, 10 assists, and nine rebounds during Sunday's contest. He struggled from beyond the arc during their first round series, but appears to have put those issues behind him. The Grizzlies will need to continue getting performances like this from Morant to have a chance in this series.

Memphis Grizzlies point guard Ja Morant put the team on his shoulders during Tuesday's Game 5 victory over the Minnesota Timberwolves. He scored a game-high 30 points and flirted with a triple-double as he racked up 13 rebounds and nine assists. He shot 9-for-22 from the field and 11-for-17 from the free throw line in the game and he also had three steals. Morant had a number of highlight reel plays during the game, including a rim-rocking dunk over T-Wolves guard Malik Beasley, who was attempting to take a charge on the play. Morant and company will look to close out the best-of-seven series in Game 6 on Friday.

Memphis Grizzlies guard Ja Morant stated he isn't 100% healthy. The 22-year-old missed nine games toward the end of the regular season because of right knee soreness, which may explain his struggles on the scoring end during the first-round series with Minnesota. Morant is averaging 20.5 points per game throughout four postseason games, nearly seven points less than he had during the year. Yet, he's been more actively involved in other areas, especially as a distributor. Nonetheless, it's possible Morant may be limited offensively moving ahead. As a result, Desmond Bane, who had 34 points while shooting nearly 67% percent from deep in Game 4, may continue to be even more involved, at least until Morant's knee is fully recovered.

Memphis Grizzlies point guard Ja Morant was able to record the fifth triple-double of his career in Thursday's win over Minnesota, despite scuffling from the floor overall. Morant finished with 16 points, 10 rebounds, and 10 assists, giving him his first postseason triple-double, although it came with the caveat of having shot 5-for-18 overall with seven turnovers. Morant has averaged 10.2 assists over his last five playoff outings, while also remaining an offensive focal point. The pace at which the series has been played has also been beneficial for his DFS appeal, as he has combined to take 34 free-throw attempts in the three contests. He will continue to possess a high ceiling ahead of Game 4 on Saturday.

Memphis Grizzlies point guard Ja Morant logged a 23-point, 10-assist double-double Tuesday en route to a convincing Game 2 win over Minnesota. Morant needed just 30 minutes to pack his stat sheet, adding nine rebounds and two made threes as well. The high-octane pace of the series has been a boon to Morant's fantasy appeal, as he appears to have quelled any concerns stemming from his rocky three-game stretch against the Timberwolves from the regular season. After appearing in just one of Memphis' final 11 regular-season outings, there appears to be no reason for concern surrounding Morant's minutes total and level of play entering Game 3 on Thursday.

Memphis Grizzlies point guard Ja Morant (knee) has been given the green light to suit up for Saturday's contest vs. the Pelicans after a nine-game absence due to right knee soreness. Morant has emerged as an elite fantasy asset in his third professional campaign, having averaged 27.6 points (sixth in the league) on 49.3% shooting. His return knocks much of the fantasy shine off Tyus Jones, who enjoyed increased usage in Morant's absence. The 22-year-old will start and will likely have his minutes monitored in some capacity with the postseason set to begin next week and Memphis on its first leg of a back-to-back.

Memphis Grizzlies guard Ja Morant (knee) might be able to play during the final two games of the regular season, according to head coach Taylor Jenkins. He has made strides in his recovery and recently was able to get in some 5-on-5 work. Morant won't suit up for Thursday's contest, but has a chance of playing on Sunday against New Orleans. The hope is that Morant can play in at least one of the final two games of the season. The organization would like for him to be able to shake off the rust before the postseason. Until then, Tyus Jones, Desmond Bane, and De'Anthony Melton will continue to see a boost in fantasy value.

Memphis Grizzlies guard Ja Morant (knee) will be re-evaluated in two weeks, according to head coach Taylor Jenkins. He was examined on Thursday and the hope was that Morant would be able to return relatively shortly. Sadly, the All-Star guard will be sidelined until at least the final week of the regular season. Tyus Jones stands to gain the most fantasy value without Morant available. He should be added in all fantasy formats while Jaren Jackson Jr. and Desmond Bane help pick up the slack on offense.

Memphis Grizzlies point guard Ja Morant (knee) will remain sidelined for Thursday's game against the Indiana Pacers. This will be his third consecutive missed game due to right knee soreness. Tyus Jones and De'Anthony Melton will handle point guard duties for the team on Thursday, with Jones getting the start. Both players are well worthy of streaming or using in DFS. Jones put up 16 points and 10 assists in the team's most recent game on Wednesday while Melton connected on six three-pointers and scored 23 points in that same game.

Memphis Grizzlies point guard Ja Morant (knee) has been ruled out for Wednesday's game against the Brooklyn Nets. He is dealing with right knee soreness. This will be his second consecutive game on the sidelines. The team went with Tyus Jones as its starting point guard with Morant out on Sunday. Jones had a solid game with 13 points and seven assists over 30 minutes. Meanwhile, fellow point guard De'Anthony Melton had 16 points, seven rebounds and four three-pointers over 20 minutes off the bench. Jones is the superior streaming option, but both players are worth DFS consideration for Wednesday's slate.

Memphis Grizzlies guard Ja Morant (knee) isn't available for Sunday's bout versus the Houston Rockets. The MVP candidate is currently dealing with knee soreness, which forced him out of Friday's game against the Atlanta Hawks. He's also been plagued by back issues as well. Fortunately, the Grizzlies won't play another one until Wednesday in Brooklyn, so with some additional rest, there's a chance Morant could be back by then. In the meantime, Tyus Jones, who's averaged 11.8 points, 6.5 assists, and 1.2 steals through 15 starts on the year, will likely take his place in the lineup. As a result, Jones will unquestionably be a popular value option in DFS lineups.

Memphis Grizzlies guard Ja Morant (back) is listed as questionable for Friday's game against the Atlanta Hawks. He was forced to sit out on Tuesday and could very well miss another game due to back soreness. His absence would mean a boost for Dillon Brooks, Desmond Bane, and De'Anthony Melton. Jaren Jackson Jr. could be asked to do more on offense as well. Jackson and Bane are the two best fantasy options, assuming Morant doesn't play. Fantasy managers will have to check back on Friday.

Memphis Grizzlies point guard Ja Morant (back) has been ruled out for Tuesday night's game against the Indiana Pacers. The third-year pro is dealing with back soreness, though the Grizzlies don't appear to be overly concerned about the injury. We'll either see De'Anthony Melton or Tyus Jones enter the starting five in Morant's place. Both players should see over 20 minutes of action in the game, but it's hard to know who is more likely to have the bigger game. Jones has been slightly better than Melton lately so he may be the one to take a shot on as a streamer or in DFS.

Memphis Grizzlies point guard Ja Morant continued his late-season push for the MVP award Thursday, going for 38 points, seven assists and four rebounds in a loss to the Celtics. Morant has combined for a gargantuan 136 points over his last three contests, which have seen him attempt at least 28 shots in each outing. It hasn't just been the scoring for Morant, who is averaging 33.8 points per game over his last 18 games, it's the efficiency. He has shot 51 percent from the floor since Jan. 17. Next up on his schedule is a matchup with the Magic on Saturday, a team that he scorched for 33 points in just 29 minutes on Feb. 5.

Memphis Grizzlies guard Ja Morant (hamstring) was forced to exit early during Thursday's game against the Minnesota Timberwolves. He appears to have suffered a hamstring issue and is being stretched out on the bench. It's uncertain if he'll return to action, but the Grizzlies are likely to take the cautious approach here. Tyus Jones and De'Anthony Melton stand to gain the most value, assuming Morant misses time. Hopefully, this is a minor issue and Morant won't be forced to miss any action. Fantasy managers should get more information after the game.
