Memphis Grizzlies star Ja Morant, who injured his right ankle against the Warriors, is anticipating playing in Friday's play-in game.

In a losing effort, the Grizzlies were led by Desmond Bane with 30 points on 11-21 shooting from the field and 5-8 from beyond the arc, while star point guard Ja Morant was not as much of a presence.

Memphis Grizzlies guard Ja Morant suffered an ankle injury during the third quarter of their game against the Golden State Warriors. While a hobbled Morant returned to the court as the Grizzlies fell to a 116-121 loss, worries around his health for the rest of the postseason loom large.
