Memphis Grizzlies star Ja Morant has been ruled out of Saturday’s matchup against the Detroit Pistons. The team listed the reason as illness.
It will be a crucial game for the Grizzlies, who hold the No. 8 spot in the Western Conference. They have identical records (45-32) with sixth-placed LA Clippers and No. 6 Minnesota Timberwolves. However, the Clippers and Timberwolves are on winning runs, four and three, respectively.
With interim coach Tuomas Iisalo at the helm, Memphis aims to miss the Play-In Tournament and snag one of the six guaranteed playoff spots.
This is a developing story.
