Grizzlies superstar Ja Morant has been dealing with a back issue recently, causing him to miss a game last Sunday. Since then, he played 32 and 31 minutes, but he’s questionable for Thursday’s contest against the Golden State Warriors due to lower back soreness.
If he’s unable to go, then Scotty Pippen Jr. would likely get the start. In 10 games as a starter this season, Pippen Jr. has averaged 14.3 points, 4.4 rebounds, 5.9 assists and 1.4 steals.
