The Grizzlies are playing without most of their primary point guards, including Ja Morant, who missed his fourth straight game with a right calf strain.

Box score for the NBA game between the Memphis Grizzlies and the Denver Nuggets at FedExForum on Monday, Nov. 24, 2025.

While the Memphis Grizzlies haven’t said so, it appears that Ja Morant will be out at least two more weeks with the right calf strain he suffered on Nov. 15 against the Cleveland Cavaliers. 

Morant, who missed his third straight game with a calf injury, and Thompson, who missed a game-tying 3-point attempt with 20 seconds left in the game, exchanged words at the conclusion of the game in Dallas.

While still playing on a minutes restriction in his fourth game back from offseason ankle surgery, Zach Edey had a double-double, with 12 points, 15 rebounds and four blocks in 26 minutes.
