Grizzlies star Ja Morant must really love embarrassing Draymond Green.
The sophomore stud just put Golden State's best interior defender in the blender:
Morant, who is just one year removed from almost winning the Rookie of the Year award, has already made a name for himself as one of the NBA's most electric perimeter talents. His energy and athleticism have drawn comparisons to similarly speedy and vertical point guards like John Wall and Russell Westbrook, while his relentless forays at the rim have drawn simultaneous gasps of awe and fear for the safety of both him and his victim.
In fact, Green seems to be on Ja's special list tonight, as the youngster nearly put him on another, more violent poster just a few minutes prior to this elegant 360 spin.
Behind Morant's leadership and dynamic offense, Memphis is in the thick of the playoff race in the dangerous Western Conference, bucking for the 7th seed with, who else, the Golden State Warriors.
Both teams are sitting just under .500 for the season thus far, and if these highlights mean anything, they are definitely trying to make statements going into the postseason. Good luck, Ja, stay safe, and put Draymond back in the torture chamber at least once more tonight. Grizzlies fans would all appreciate it.
