This Wednesday, the Lakers and Grizzlies will be clashing again for their second game of the seven games series in the first round of the NBA playoffs.

Ja Morant is the superstar of Memphis and one of their best stars, as he is pivotal for the team, but in game one, he left the game with a wrist injury and even said he had a high level of pain.

According to information by NBA insider Shams Charania, Morant status for game two is still up in the air, as the star has no breaks or fractures. Charania said: "I'm told there are no breaks, no fractures in Ja Morant's hand… However, he felt that it was a 10/10 when it comes to pain, so his status is still up in the air for game two on Wednesday."

Whatever the case, the Lakers have to prepare for both scenarios and focus mainly on them, as they have been able to get a win already, and Ja Morant was on the court.
