Ja Morant's return to the Memphis Grizzlies lineup is imminent. He is buying 250 tickets for Grizzlies fans to pick up at FedExForum on Wednesday ahead of the likely moment this Friday against the Utah Jazz. While it's possible it is just a great gesture on a Ja-centric calendar date (December 12th, or 12/12), #12 in Memphis is certainly nearing retaking his place in the Grizzlies rotation.
That means someone will be returning to the bench...and that someone will likely be out of the rotational mix. While both unfortunate spots may be filled by the same individual Grizzly, there are likely two Memphis players whose current roles will be the most impacted.
