Video: Grizzlies' Ja Morant Suffers Brutal Ankle Injury vs Nets

This didn't look good as Memphis Grizzlies superstar, Ja Morant had to be taken out of the game by a wheelchair after an ugly ankle injury. Morant was contesting a mid-range jump shot when he came down funny and almost fully turned his ankle completely over.

Ja Morant landed badly on his foot and couldn’t put any weight on it. Was taken off the court in a wheel chair.

Hopefully it’s not serious🙏 pic.twitter.com/GsH4hbj7Rm

The Grizzlies are calling the injury an ankle sprain at this time, and he'll be re-evaluated again on Tuesday. Prayers up it's nothing to serious as the NBA is a better place with Morant playing on a nightly basis.
