March 2026

Ja Morant has been ruled out for the rest of the season after the Memphis Grizzlies confirmed he suffered a sprained ulnar collateral ligament in his left elbow. The injury ends another disrupted campaign for the guard, who played only 20 games this season. Memphis said Morant will receive a platelet-rich plasma injection to support healing and is expected to be ready for next season. Reuters reported he averaged 19.5 points, 8.1 assists and 3.3 rebounds this season, continuing a run of limited availability over the last three years
