Ja Morant is expected to make his return in Wednesday’s season opener against the Pelicans, according to NBA insider Marc Stein. After missing the entire preseason with an ankle injury, Morant’s comeback is timely for the Grizzlies, who are short on backup guards with injuries to Ty Jerome and Scotty Pippen Jr. Rookie Javon Small may see increased rotation minutes, though he’s not yet a must-add in fantasy leagues. Observing his role and playing time could be beneficial.
