What’s the buzz on Twitter?
Brandon Rahbar @BrandonRahbar Every Thunder starter plus one is in double digits. SGA: 15 PTS Dort: 12 PTS JDub: 16 PTS Chet: 16 PTS Hartenstein: 14 PTS Wiggins: 11 PTS
Ja Morant is the only Grizz player in double digits. – 2:44 PM
Meant to post this before last night’s game. I tried to get a picture of the “Get Loud Mane” sign and accidentally snapped this dope photo of Ja Morant. One thing that might go unnoticed is Mike Miller being in the background. pic.x.com/sAcT0XaNJO – 8:24 AM
Tim MacMahon @espn_macmahon Grizzlies interim coach Tuomas Iisalo on Ja Morant (ankle): “I know he’s doing everything possible to be able to play.”
He says the final call won’t be made until 30-60 minutes before opening tip. – 7:47 PM
Drew Hill @DrewHill_DM Iisalo says they will know of Ja Morant is more likely to play between 60 and 30 minutes before the game.
When asked what type of soreness Morant is dealing with, he said that’s more of a question for the medical staff. – 7:47 PM
Kurt Helin @basketballtalk Ja Morant did not practice with the Grizzlies on Thursday, is gametime decision vs. the Mavericks Friday Morant rolled his ankle against the Warriors. He returned to play the final 9 minutes of that game but was clearly slowed and not as explosive.
