Ja Morant is quickly becoming one of the most exciting and entertaining players to watch in the NBA. With his quickness and athleticism, Morant is always able to put on a show for the fans. Ja also has the ability to read defenses well which leads to many electrifying transition finishes. While you may not think of him as a top point guard, Morant continues to shine as they head towards the playoffs.

The Grizzlies have been on fire recently and are currently 8th in the Western Conference which would put them in the play-in tournament. Last season the Grizzlies were eliminated by Damian Lillard and the Blazers in the play-in tournament. However, this year it is looking better for the Grizzlies as Morant and Jaren Jackson Jr. have looked good in the few games Jackson Jr.'s been back. A team with a lot of young talent like the Grizzlies will face tough tests in the play-in tournament or playoffs, but with a leader like Morant, they will have a good shot.
