Ja Morant (hand) out for Grizzlies' Wednesday Game 2 matchup
Memphis Grizzlies point guard Ja Morant (hand) will not play in Wednesday's Game Two contest against the Los Angeles Lakers.
What It Means:
Morant is not available after he suffered a hand injury during Game One's loss. Expect Tyus Jones to play a major role at point guard while Jaren Jackson and Desmond Bane see increased usage.
In a matchup against a Lakers' team allowing 51.0 FanDuel points per game this regular season to points guards, Jones' FanDuel salary stands at $7,000.
