Grizzlies’ Jaylen Wells discharged from hospital

Memphis Grizzlies rookie forward Jaylen Wells has been discharged from a Charlotte-area hospital after being stretchered off the floor following a hard fall in Tuesday night's game, his agent told ESPN on Wednesday.
Wells also suffered a broken wrist that will end his season, postseason included.
Wells, 21, crashed face-first to the floor following a foul while completing a second-quarter dunk. Wells was in the clear and going up for a jam when Charlotte Hornets guard KJ Simpson undercut him. Wells came down hard, and medical personnel immediately raced out to check on him.
Players from both teams knelt in prayer as the medical staff tended to Wells, who eventually was loaded onto a stretcher, with his head immobilized, and wheeled away. Game action was halted for 23 minutes in all.
Wells was taken to the Novant Health Presbyterian Medical Center, according to Hornets personnel.
The referees upgraded the call against Simpson to a flagrant-2 foul, ejecting him from the game, which Memphis won 124-100.
Wells will end his season averaging 10.4 points and 3.4 rebounds in 79 games (74 starts).
