Memphis Grizzlies star Ja Morant could make his return to an NBA court on Wednesday against the Houston Rockets, according to Shams Charania of The Athletic and Stadium.
Charania reported on FanDuel TV that Morant is still ramping up even though he has served his eight-game suspension.
The NBA suspended the two-time All-Star after he uploaded a video of himself holding a firearm at a nightclub to social media.
ESPN's Adrian Wojnarowski and Tim MacMahon reported on March 13 that Morant entered a counseling program. The dynamic guard had said in a statement that he was "going to take some time away to get help and work on learning better methods of dealing with stress and my overall well-being."
At the time, it looked like Morant's season might be over. There was no sense of how long he intended to remain in counseling, and the NBA had yet to formally weigh in with a punishment.
