Memphis Grizzlies star Ja Morant is on the injury report ahead of Friday's home game against the Washington Wizards. Morant is listed as out due to right hip soreness.

Morant left Wednesday's win against the Los Angeles Lakers in the third quarter after a hard fall under the basket. Grizzlies wing Jake LaRavia attempted an alley-oop pass to Morant, who jumped in the air and appeared to have contact with a Lakers player.

Morant got up slowly, looked over to Grizzlies coach Tuomas Iisalo and asked to come out of the game. LaRavia said he felt that Morant was undercut while in the air. After the game, Morant voiced his frustration with the Lakers defense.

"Fouling," Morant said. "We speak on that. Fouling. That's why I didn't play the rest of the game. Fouling. Let's talk about it."

This is the third time Morant has dealt with an injury this season. He had a mild ankle sprain in the preseason and missed one regular season game due to right thigh soreness.

Morant walked gingerly off the floor after Wednesday's game. He pointed out after the game even though he was jumping around to celebrate Yuki Kawamura's first career NBA points, he was doing so on one leg.

With Morant out, Scotty Pippen Jr. is in line to receive more playing time. Pippen has been one of the NBA's most impressive backup point guards in the first two weeks of the season.

Memphis is also hopeful that other guard reinforcements could be back soon. Desmond Bane and Marcus Smart were both listed as week-to-week in an injury update from Nov. 1.

Forward Vince Williams Jr. was also assigned to practice with the G League Memphis Hustle on Thursday as part of his ramp-up process. He'll be re-assigned to the Grizzlies following practice.
