Morant Set to Return After Suspension

Ja Morant returned after a one-game suspension for conduct detrimental to the Memphis Grizzlies following comments after a loss, averaging 20.8 points and 6.7 assists this season.

  • Nov 3, 2025, Ja Morant, Memphis Grizzlies guard, returned and started Monday night against the Detroit Pistons after serving a one-game suspension for conduct detrimental to the team.
  • After Friday's loss to the Los Angeles Lakers, Morant scored eight points and seemed disengaged, then told media `go ask the coaches` and said `According to them, probably don't play me, honestly.`
  • Memphis coach Tuomas Iisalo called the issue `an internal matter` and said the group discussed moving forward to beat the Pistons, while Morant ignored reporters in the locker room before warmups.
  • That led to suspension for Sunday's 117-104 loss to the Toronto Raptors, and the Grizzlies host the Detroit Pistons Monday night with a 7 p.m. tipoff, with a fan flying from Connecticut to watch Morant and Cam Spencer.
  • Morant averages 20.8 points and 6.7 assists as the Memphis Grizzlies' leading scorer, once a top finisher in the paint who now attempts nearly as many 3-pointers as shots near the basket.
