Ja Morant came up big for the Memphis Grizzlies on Tuesday night, scoring a game-winning bucket to complete his team's 111-109 comeback victory over the Minnesota Timberwolves.

After the game, the Grizzlies superstar had a strong message as this series heads back to Minnesota for what could be a season-defining contest Morant and Co. (h/t NBA on Twitter):

“I'm saving my greatest for that one more win,” Morant said as he headed to the locker room after an epic win.

With the Grizzlies now up 3-2, one more win in Game 6 means that they book themselves for a spot in the Western Conference Semifinals to face the winners of the Warriors-Nuggets series. Clearly, Morant intends to bring everything he has for that pivotal matchup.

The Timberwolves won't go down without a fight, though. That's twice now that they have allowed the Grizzlies to crawl back to steal away a win and they're hoping that this will not happen for the third time. Their season will be on the line in Game 6 and the fact that they will be playing in front of their home crowd should give them some extra motivation.
