Memphis Grizzlies star Ja Morant missed Thursday nights game vs. the Denver Nuggets with an illness, but he will be available to play on Friday night vs. the LA Clippers. The Grizzlies have released their injury report for this game, and Morant is not listed, meaning he is good to go.

This is great news for a Grizzlies team that is unbeaten with Morant this season, and just 6-20 without him. Just a one game absence for Morant with this illness is great news for the Grizzlies, as they will look to continue the positive moment they built in his first four games after returning from suspension.

While the Grizzlies are of course still near the bottom of the Western Conference due to their poor start in Morant's absence, this has been a completely different team since his return. Having secured the two-seed in consecutive seasons, the Grizzlies know what type of success they can have when healthy, and have shown signs of that since Morant returned.

Memphis is still without some key players who are sidelined with injuries, but Morant's presence is the big one, and it has proven to be a serious difference maker. Getting the star point guard back from an illness in this game, the Grizzlies will look to get back to their winning ways with Morant in the lineup.
