The Memphis Grizzlies have officially ruled out star guard Ja Morant for the remainder of the 2025-26 season due to a ulnar collateral ligament sprain in his left elbow, a devastating blow to the team’s playoff hopes. Morant, a two-time All-Star, has played just 20 games this season, a stark contrast to his previous campaigns. The Grizzlies reportedly explored trading him before the February deadline but found minimal interest from other teams, highlighting the challenges of moving a high-salary player with injury concerns.
