Ja Morant returns with double-double in win

Ja Morant looked sharp in his return to the court on Friday, posting a double-double with 17 points (6-of-11 FG, 5-of-6 FT) and 10 assists in a 125-104 victory over the Milwaukee Bucks. He added four rebounds and two steals in just 25 minutes of action.

Fantasy Impact:

After missing the previous four games with a left ankle sprain, Morant showed little rust, efficiently guiding the offense despite being on a minutes restriction. His production per minute was elite, and the lopsided score allowed the Grizzlies to keep his workload light in his first game back. Morant will look to ramp up his minutes when Memphis travels to Washington on Sunday.
