Memphis Grizzlies struggled this season, finishing 13th in the West at 27-55 due to numerous injuries.
Key players like Ja Morant, Jaren Jackson Jr., and Marcus Smart missed significant time.
Injuries plagued the team, with 13 out of 18 rostered players reported hurt during the season.
Despite the setbacks, Grizzlies anticipate the NBA draft and hope for a healthy return next season.
Ja Morant expressed optimism for a playoff run if the team remains injury-free.
Grizzlies had recent playoff experience but fell short against tough opponents like the Lakers and Warriors.
The young core, including Morant and Jackson Jr., showed promise with three straight playoff appearances.
Looking ahead, Grizzlies aim to strengthen with a healthy roster and a top-ten draft pick, supported by veteran presence Derrick Rose.
