Grizzlies general manager Zach Kleiman said Friday that Morant (elbow) is ramping up, but the two-time All-Star is uncertain to return to action following the All-Star break, Clay Bailey of the Associated Press reports. "I will continue to say, [he is] currently rehabbing. He's attacking his rehab," Kleiman said of Morant. "It's a medical determination [when he returns]."

EDGE Analysis

Though Morant was rumored to be on trade block prior to last week's deadline, the 26-year-old guard ultimately stayed put in Memphis. While addressing the Grizzlies' deadline moves, Kleiman acknowledged that the organization remains "incredibly supportive" of Morant, whose uncertain health may have been a factor in him not being dealt. Morant, who last played Jan. 21 before being shut down due to a UCL sprain his left elbow, is scheduled to be re-evaluated later this week or early next week, at which point the Grizzlies could provide a better idea about how close he might be to playing again. If Morant remains sidelined following the All-Star break, the Grizzlies will continue to lean on a committee of Ty Jerome, Scotty Pippen and Cam Spencer to cover the minutes at point guard.

The Grizzlies announced Saturday that Morant (elbow) will be re-evaluated in approximately three weeks.

EDGE Analysis

Morant sustained a UCL sprain in his left elbow during the Grizzlies' loss to the Hawks on Wednesday and missed Friday's loss to the Pelicans before the Grizzlies opted to shut him down for a longer-term period. Since he's not scheduled to be re-evaluated for three weeks, Morant looks safe to rule out through the All-Star break, and the elbow injury could lessen the possibility of him getting moved elsewhere ahead of the Feb. 5 trade deadline. While Morant is sidelined, Cam Spencer should step in as the Grizzlies' starting point guard, though Spencer's minutes could take a hit once Ty Jerome (calf) is cleared to make his season debut.

Morant has been ruled out for Friday's game against the Pelicans due to a left elbow sprain.

EDGE Analysis

Morant looked sharp during Wednesday's matchup against Atlanta, finishing with 23 points and 12 assists, but he'll miss at least one matchup after picking up an elbow injury. This presumably means more looks for Cam Spencer and Vince Williams in the backcourt.

Morant produced 23 points (7-15 FG, 1-4 3Pt, 8-8 FT), two rebounds, 12 assists, three blocks and one steal in 30 minutes during Wednesday's 124-122 loss to the Hawks.

EDGE Analysis

Morant was in full control of the offense, putting constant pressure on Atlanta by relentlessly attacking the rim and drawing contact for trips to the charity stripe. This performance gave Morant his third consecutive double-double and fourth 20/10 outing of the season, and he also established a new career high in blocks. Morant will look to stay hot Friday versus New Orleans.

Morant (calf) recorded 24 points (7-13 FG, 3-4 3Pt, 7-9 FT), 13 assists, five rebounds and one steal across 28 minutes in Saturday's 126-109 win over the Magic in London.

EDGE Analysis

Morant got off to a strong start in his return from a six-game absence due to a right calf contusion, logging 20 points and 10 assists across 15 minutes in the first half. While he wasn't as impressive in the second half, the Grizzlies still came away with a dominant win after leading by 19 points at halftime. The star point guard was on a minutes restriction Sunday, and the Grizzlies will likely continue to monitor his playing time carefully following the extended absence. While availability continues to be an issue for Morant, he has tallied three double-doubles over his last five appearances, scoring at least 20 points in three outings during that stretch.

Morant (calf) is available for Sunday's game against the Magic in London.

EDGE Analysis

Morant has been officially cleared to return Sunday from a six-game absence due to a right calf injury. He'll reclaim his spot in the starting lineup from Cam Spencer, though Morant will operate under a minutes restriction in his return, per Drew Hill of The Daily Memphian.

Head coach Tuomas Iisalo told reporters that Morant (calf) would operate on a minutes restriction if he were to play against the Magic on Sunday in London, Drew Hill of The Daily Memphian reports.

EDGE Analysis

Morant is listed as probable for Sunday's game and is trending toward making a return from a six-game absence due to a right calf contusion. If he is given the green light to play, then Cam Spencer would likely come off the bench, though the latter could still see a decent chunk of minutes in a reserve role due to Morant's minutes restriction.

Morant (calf) is listed as probable for Sunday's game against the Magic in London.

EDGE Analysis

Morant is on track to return Sunday from a six-game absence due to a right calf contusion while also being in the center of trade talks. His return would likely result in Cam Spencer -- who has started in each of Memphis' last six games -- reverting to a bench role. In the four games prior to his most recent absence, Morant averaged 23.5 points, 7.8 assists, 2.3 rebounds and 1.3 steals over 29.3 minutes per game.

Morant (calf) won't play Thursday against Orlando.

EDGE Analysis

Morant, who has been subject of trade rumors over the past week, will miss his straight game Thursday while he continues to tend to a right calf contusion. The point guard has seems to be nearing a return to the court, however, as head coach Tuomas Iisalo said that Morant practiced Tuesday, per Joe Vardon of The Athletic. With Morant having made the trip with the Grizzlies to Europe, he could be an option to return to action in the team's rematch with the Magic on Sunday in London.

Morant (calf) has been ruled out for Sunday's game against the Nets.

EDGE Analysis

Morant will miss his fifth consecutive contest due to a right calf contusion, and his next opportunity to play will come Thursday against the Magic. With the Murray State product sidelined, Cam Spencer will likely remain in the starting five, while Vince Williams could see increased playing time.
