Memphis guard Ja Morant is doubtful to play Saturday when the Grizzlies face elimination in Game 4 of their Western Conference series against Oklahoma City because of a bruised hip.

Morant was injured when he crashed to the floor in Game 3, an injury that contributed to the team's 114-108 loss .

Despite reports that Morant would be out for Game 4 on Saturday, interim coach Tuomas Iisalo declined to confirm that.

"They're still examining him," Iisalo said when asked about the guard's status, adding that Morant did not practice Friday.

Asked about the type of tests or evaluation conducted on Morant, Iisalo replied: "I don't know. I'm not a medical person."
