Memphis Grizzlies star Ja Morant likely out Game 4, coach Taylor Jenkins says

SAN FRANCISCO -- Memphis Grizzlies star point guard Ja Morant is likely to miss Game 4 on Monday with a knee injury, head coach Taylor Jenkins said on Sunday.

"He's got further evaluation going on," Jenkins said on Sunday. "But from what I have been told, there is probably a really good chance he doesn't play tomorrow."

The Grizzlies did not immediately detail the exact nature of Morant's knee injury. But the Grizzlies believe it was caused by a play in which Jordan Poole grabbed Morant's knee while going for a basketball on a trap near halfcourt in the fourth quarter of Game 3.
