    Ja Morant could barely stand, needing a wheelchair to take him from the court area after spraining his left ankle.

    Having already lost their first two games, now the Memphis Grizzlies had lost the NBA Rookie of the Year and their best player.

    “A moment like that can really test you, but our guys just kept on fighting," Grizzlies coach Taylor Jenkins.

    And Morant was there to watch them.

    The Grizzlies earned their first victory of the season, outlasting the short-handed Brooklyn Nets 116-111 in overtime Monday night.
