Ja Morant really is that dude!
Monday night’s game between the Memphis Grizzlies and the San Antonio Spurs featured not one but two absolutely mind-blowing Morant moments fans are going to be talking about for some time. The first is this sensational dunk over poor Jakob Poeltl, who is going to be seeing this play in his nightmares for some time, with two minutes left in the second quarter.
Morant blows by Joshua Primo with unreal speed before going up and over Poeltl for this emphatic one-handed dunk. Seriously, look at Morant’s air time here! It’s absolutely bananas stuff. And as expected, the crowd goes WILD.

But that’s not all! As we were still recovering from that incredible dunk, Morant one-upped himself with this ridiculous buzzer beater to put the Grizzlies up 68-58 going into the half… and his feet don’t even touch the ground.

Just pure insanity from Morant on both of these plays, and they happened mere minutes apart! There are no words.
