The Memphis Grizzlies haven’t been the same team of old this season, and that’s far from a surprise.
They’re just 6-14 through the first 20 games of the season, and they still need to play five more games without their best player.
Ja Morant is currently serving a 25-game suspension, and former NBA star Isaiah Thomas, just like most of us, cannot wait to see him play again.
That’s why the former All-Star took to Twitter to ask when will Morant be back on the court, predicting that he’s going to go on an impressive roll as soon as he comes back.
When Ja morant come back?? This season already crackin but I bet he go craaaazzzyyyyy

Notably, the Grizzlies will have to wait until Dec 19 to have him on the court, and while there have been no reports about minute limitations, he might need a week or two of conditioning to get his legs back under him and go back to his usual ways.
Morant is one of the best players in the league already, and he’s a one-man show when he’s able to play.
He got himself into this situation for failing to comply with the league’s anti-gun policy twice.
NBA Commissioner Adam Silver gave him another chance and he spent some time away from the team trying to work on his coping skills, vowing to be better just to do the same a couple of weeks later.
