Morant blow for Grizzlies

Grizzlies All-star guard Ja Morant has a sprained left ankle that will keep him out at least a week and possibly longer. Memphis announced yesterday that Morant suffered a grade one sprain during Saturday’s win over the Oklahoma City Thunder. Team officials said Morant’s return timeline will be week-toweek with updates provided as appropriate. Morant left the 121-110 win late after scoring 19 points and having 11 assists. Grizzlies coach Taylor Jenkins said after the game that Morant ‘‘tweaked’’ his ankle after further evaluation of the severity yesterday.
