According to Ja Morant, the Memphis Grizzlies' fate was sealed when Lu Dort collided with him mid-air before Game 3 went into halftime. A nasty spill on the hardwood ruled him out for the final one-and-a-half games of a four-game sweep by the Oklahoma City Thunder.

Returning home for Game 3, Memphis showed resilience but ultimately lost 114-108. The Grizzlies led by as many as 29 points but were unable to withstand the Thunder's second-half surge after Ja Morant suffered a hip injury in the second quarter and exited the game.

Here's what Ja Morant said at the team's exit interviews about the Grizzlies' playoff series against the Thunder, his injuries and the offseason.
