Davis' return sets the stage for a star-studded battle against Jaren Jackson Jr. In his past two games, Jackson scored 39 points on Nov. 8 against the Washington Wizards and led Memphis with 20 points in another win against the Portland Trailblazers on Nov. 10.

After missing all but nine games in the 2023-24 season, Memphis Grizzlies star Ja Morant returned from his injury and suspension-ridden year on a mission. Through his first eight appearances of the new season, Morant averaged 20.6 points and a career-high 9.1 assists per game, leading Memphis to a 5-3 record in games that he played in.

The Memphis Grizzlies announced Saturday that two-time All-Star point guard Ja Morant has an injured right hip that will keep him out week to week.
