For the game, the Grizzlies will be without their best player, as Ja Morant has been ruled out. Morant is averaging 20.6 points, 5.0 rebounds and 9.1 assists per contest while shooting 44.8% from the field and 25.

The Memphis sensation fell awkwardly after attempting to catch an alley-oop pass from Jake LaRavia during the third quarter. He missed the dunk, crashed to the ground, and slowly got back up. After the Lakers scored in the succeeding possession, the limping Morant suddenly signaled a substitution from acting head coach Tuomas Iisalo.

There's a tense history between the Memphis Grizzlies and LeBron James' LA Lakers. Ja Morant had a lot to say after Wednesday's win.
