Memphis Grizzlies star point guard Ja Morant made his much-anticipated return to the lineup on Wednesday night against the Houston Rockets. Morant's return comes after his eight-game suspension for conduct detrimental to the league. Morant previously rejoined the Grizzlies on Monday, however, the team opted to hold him out for an additional game as he ramped up his conditioning. Upon his return to action on Wednesday, Morant came off the bench. However, he didn’t skip a beat as he immediately posterized Rockets forward Kenyon Martin Jr. early in the second quarter.Bleacher Report@BleacherReportJA MORANT POSTER 4711619JA MORANT POSTER 😳 https://t.co/Q0kQUxpQiLThe poster dunk had fans on Twitter hyped to see the return of one of the NBA’s most electric stars.

The team went 6-3 without Morant. Overall, Memphis is 10-8 without Morant this season. That is likely why the team was in no hurry to rush him back.Grizzlies coach Taylor Jenkins told reporters before Wednesday night’s game that Morant could come off the bench for a game or two. He will then be re-evaluated:"This was something he brought to the table as well as had been on my mind," Jenkins said. "So, we collectively thought this was the best strategy, at least for the first one or two games. And then we'll kind of re-evaluate after that."The Grizzlies entered Wednesday sitting second in the Western Conference (44-27).Morant averaged 27.1 points, 6.0 rebounds, 8.2 assists and 1.1 steals per game on 46.3% shooting over 53 games before his suspension.
