Ja Morant left the Memphis Grizzlies’ Game 1 loss to the Los Angeles Lakers in the fourth quarter with a right hand injury and did not return.
The x-rays were negative, even though Taylor Jenkins said so Morant was in “some pain”.
Jenkins also added that Morant mode for Game 2 was “in danger.”
Morant fell on his hand after he lunged at Anthony Davis midway through the quarter.
Morant was already playing with a wrapped hand due to an injury he picked up during the last week of the regular season.
Morant returned to the Grizzlies’ bench but did not re-enter the game. Grizzlies medical staff is currently evaluating Morant’s hand and wrist.
