The Memphis Grizzlies and Minnesota Timberwolves are engaged in one of the most interesting playoff series NBA fans have seen in a long time. That's especially true for a first-round series. On Tuesday, the Grizzlies and Timberwolves played their pivotal Game 5, with the series tied at two wins a piece.

Memphis jumped out to an early 13-2 lead, but Minnesota came right back. The rest of the first half was back and forth. The TWolves went on a run in the third and led 85-72 in the closing seconds until Ja Morant did this.

Morant drove around one defender and skied for one of the most insane slam dunks you will ever see. He left Malik Beasley forever on someone's wall on a poster.

The dunk was so sick, it immediately left people all over the sports world reacting to it.

Boston Celtics superstar forward Jayson Tatum simply posted: “Damn.”

It wasn't only basketball players reacting to the insane slam. NFL stars could not help themselves.

Kansas City Chiefs quarterback Patrick Mahomes also took to Twitter, posting: “JA!! (3 fire emojis).”
