The ankles appear to be the Achilles heel of the players in NBA, an inch can separate you from falling well or from a serious sprain. That’s what happened Ja Morant, the feeling of a beginner a Memphis Grizzlies, in the match against Brooklyn Nets.
The clock showed that there were 2 minutes and 44 seconds left in the second quarter of the game between the Nets and the Grizzlies, when Morant jumped to try a cover without imagining that the result of the game would be the least expected. When Ja fell, her left ankle clicked, crash, crash, crash!
In the sensitive images we bring you, it was possible to deduce the great pain that Morant felt because all his weight had just fallen on his left ankle, the guard left the Barclays Center yard jumping on his right foot. He collapsed on the field.

Immediately, the Grizzlies medical staff went to treat Ja Morant, but the pain was such that he could not return to the game and he had to get out of a wheelchair. Last season’s award winner raised the alarm in Memphis because without him nothing and nothing can be done in the NBA 2020-21 season.

After receiving treatment in the locker room, an encouraging image of Ja Morant appeared. He returned to the Memphis Grizzlies bench and, although he did not return to the game, he was active giving directions to his colleagues in victory against Brooklyn Nets 116-111.
