Ja Morant, Anthony Edwards playing status for Grizzlies vs Timberwolves
Mark J. Rebilas-USA TODAY Sports
Given their questionable injury status, there is currently some doubt as to whether Edwards or Morant will be able to play on Wednesday night.
Edwards has missed the last two games with a right foot injury, with injury maintenance for that ailment being listed as the reason for his questionable designation on Wednesday. Morant played in the Grizzlies’ last game, a win over the Los Angeles Clippers, but is listed as questionable with a left ankle sprain for the Timberwolves matchup.

Meanwhile, Ty Jerome, GG Jackson, Zach Edey, John Kanchar, Cam Spencer, and Scotty Pippen Jr. will all miss the game due to various reasons.
For the Timberwolves, Mike Conley will remain out of the lineup with right Achilles tendinopathy.
Overall, the Timberwolves have played well in Edwards’ absence, racking up two wins over the weekend, including one against the Golden State Warriors in Stephen Curry’s return game.
The Grizzlies have also been playing some quietly improved basketball of late, inching closer to the .500 mark after a disastrous start to the season.
In any case, the Grizzlies and Timberwolves are slated to tip things off on Wednesday at 8:00 pm ET.
