Smart injured his ankle during the game against the Lakers on Tuesday while contesting a pass. He will be sidelined for three to five weeks.
Memphis Grizzlies are having a tough start to the season. On top of that, they have now lost one of their main guards.
According to Shams Charania from The Athletic, Marcus Smart is set to be sidelined for three to five weeks with a left ankle injury.
Smart injured his ankle during the game against the Los Angeles Lakers on Tuesday when he landed on Austin Reaves' foot after contesting a pass.
The Grizzlies are already playing without their biggest star Ja Morant, who is serving a suspension for his activity last season. Now, the team's backcourt will most likely consist of Jacob Gilyard and Ziaire Williams.
After getting traded from the Boston Celtics to Memphis, Smart has been averaging 12.5 points, 2.5 rebounds, and 5 assists per game.
The Grizzlies currently hold the third-worst record in the league with two wins and nine losses and are dead last in the Western Conference.
