Memphis' Grizzlies finally flew high in match 3 of their first round series against Oklahoma City Thunder. Then Ja Morant fell with a thud.
The All-Star left Thursday's match with an apparent injury after landing hard on its hip in the second quarter. He jumped for a basket on a breakaway of 2 against 1 when he was put in the sub-skip by the Guard Thunder Luguentz Dort.

The room was examined for a blatant fault, but remained a common fault to sleep.
Morant was visibly in pain, but stayed in the game long enough to pull his free throws and missed both, then headed directly to the locker room. If he hadn't fired them, he would not have been eligible to return to the match.
