Grizzlies Granted $12.4M Exception for Ja Morant's Season-Ending Injury

The NBA's decision allows the team to sign a player to a one-year deal or acquire a player in the final year of his contract until March 11.

Memphis Grizzlies have been granted a $12.4 million disabled player exception by the NBA due to the season-ending injury of star guard Ja Morant.
Ja Morant suffered a shoulder subluxation at practice earlier this month, leading to a labral tear and subsequent season-ending surgery.
Morant is expected to make a full recovery ahead of the 2024-25 season.
The Grizzlies have until March 11 to use the exception, which allows them to sign a player to a one-year deal or acquire a player in the final year of his contract.
Morant played only nine games this season due to a 25-game suspension for 'conduct detrimental to the league.'
