Won't go vs. Hawks
Morant (back) has been ruled out for Saturday's game against Atlanta.
Analysis
Morant was tagged as doubtful when the team first released the injury report ahead of Saturday's clash, so this update was expected. Marcus Smart (shoulder) and Scotty Pippen should be in line for more opportunities at point guard in Morant's place.

Unlikely to play Saturday
Morant (back) is listed as doubtful for Saturday's game versus the Hawks.
Analysis
Morant left Thursday's game versus the Warriors earlier due to lower back soreness and is now expected to miss Saturday's contest. With Marcus Smart (shoulder) questionable, Scotty Pippen should be in store for increased playing time.

Leaves early with sore back
Morant exited Thursday's game against the Warriors with 9:09 remaining in the third quarter due to back soreness and didn't return. He finished with nine points (4-9 FG, 1-5 3Pt), three rebounds, three assists, two steals and two blocks in 17 minutes.
Analysis
Morant suffered the injury when he fell hard to the floor on a layup attempt. The Warriors' Kevon Looney was initially charged with a foul on the play in question, but the foul was overturned after an official review, and Morant headed to the bench. The Grizzlies labeled Morant as questionable to return, but with Memphis having built a 50-point lead by the end of the third quarter, the point guard was never expected to check back into the contest. The severity of his injury isn't known, but he can be viewed as questionable for Saturday's game against the Hawks until the Grizzlies provide another update on his condition.

Good to go Thursday
Morant (back) is available for Thursday's game against the Warriors, Damichael Cole of The Memphis Commercial Appeal reports.
Analysis
Morant will suit up Thursday after receiving a questionable tag due to lower back soreness. Over his last five outings, the superstar has averaged 23.8 points, 7.2 assists, 5.6 rebounds and 1.8 steals while shooting 38.7 percent from deep across 31.2 minutes per contest.

Dealing with back soreness
Morant is questionable for Thursday's game against the Warriors due to low back soreness.
Analysis
Morant missed eight games in November due to a hip injury and has also experienced back and knee problems in recent weeks, so this shouldn't come as a surprise. His absence would be a huge blow for the Grizzlies, however, as the star floor general has averaged 23.8 points, 7.2 assists, 5.6 rebounds and 1.8 steals per game over his last five appearances. If Morant can't go Thursday, expect Scotty Pippen to take his place in the lineup.

Stuffs stat sheet Sunday
Morant registered 20 points (6-21 FG, 2-7 3Pt, 6-8 FT), seven rebounds, six assists and three steals over 31 minutes during Sunday's 116-110 loss to the Lakers.
Analysis
On the surface, Morant had a strong performance Monday and delivered another impressive stat line. However, he had major struggles when dealing with Max Christie as his primary defender. Morant finished with more field-goal attempts than points scored, and he also committed a season-high seven turnovers. Fantasy managers will surely live with that lack of efficiency, though, as long as he continues to light up the stat sheet regularly.
