Another Spectacular Spin:
Later, with the Grizzlies just behind at 57-56, Jaren Jackson Jr. spotted Morant cutting to the hoop. As Cameron Johnson tried to block him, Morant twirled through the air again for another fantastic finish.
We love watching players like Ja who make basketball so exciting!
By this point in the game, Morant had racked up 21 points from nine out of sixteen shots. Before this match, he averaged 20 points per game as Memphis started their season with four wins and three losses.
Return of a Star:
Last season was tough for Morant; he only played nine games due to suspension and surgery for a torn labrum. But now that he’s back on court healthy again, it’s clear why he’s considered one of basketball’s most electrifying stars. His performance against Brooklyn reminded everyone what Memphis misses when he’s not playing.
