Ja Morant had a bold 5-word reply on why his injury ruined Grizzlies' playoff series

Grizzlies star guard Ja Morant had some interesting thoughts when asked to reflect on what happened during his postseason loss against the Thunder.

Memphis was swept, 4-0, by Oklahoma City in the opening round of the playoffs in the Western Conference. The series was not particularly competitive as the Thunder won the first game dominantly, 131-80. The second game was a bit closer, 118-99, but still advantageous for Oklahoma City.

When the series went to Memphis, it finally started to look promising for the Grizzlies. At one point, Memphis had a 29-point lead over Oklahoma City. Unfortunately, however, Morant got hurt after playing just 15 minutes and missed the remainder of the series.
