Nearly three weeks after a hip subluxation and multiple Grade 1 pelvic muscle strains, Morant has reached the final steps of his recovery process before a potential return. A hip subluxation is an injury where the ball of the hip partially slips out of socket before sliding back on its own.

Ja Morant made an immediate impact with the Memphis Grizzlies in his return to the lineup after missing eight games — and almost three weeks — with hip and pelvic muscle injuries.

Ja Morant looked like his vintage self in the Grizzlies' win over the Blazers following a recovery period for a hip flexion.
