The Memphis Grizzlies saw Ja Morant exit Game 3 of their first-round series against the Oklahoma City Thunder, prompting a historic collapse where the Grizzlies were outscored 63-31 in the second half without Morant on the court.

A mid-air collision with Thunder defender Lu Dort caused Morant's injury, as the Grizzlies guard had to watch his team have one of the worst Playoff meltdowns in NBA history. The Thunder are up 3-0 and already virtually guaranteed a spot in the second round.

With Morant's status unclear after the end of Game 3, a confirmation on his future in this series has come. ESPN's Shams Charania is reporting that Morant will miss the game against OKC with a hip injury suffered from the fall.

"Memphis Grizzlies star Ja Morant will miss Game 4 against the Oklahoma City Thunder on Saturday due to a hip injury, sources tell ESPN. Morant played through a significant ankle sprain to clinch a playoff spot last week, then suffered a scary fall on his hip Thursday."
