Yes. Keep it up Ja. As long as you keep having these twenty-point games with large amounts of assists, eventually the media will have to acknowledge that you are the undisputed ROTY of the Year no matter what Zion Williamson does when he comes back to the court. Catching sick lobs can only further solidify…

Ja Morant 23 Points/7 Assists Full Highlights (1/2/2020)
Just give Ja Morant the ROTY of the Year award. Just give it to him, it’s not even close right now. But give it to him quick, because any day now Zion Williamson is going to come back and even though he’s at most going to play 50 percent of the season, people are going…

Ja Morant’s final points came with seven minutes to go in the third quarter and the Grizzlies up by 21. He did get a few more assists after that, but his scoring stopped entirely, and Memphis ended up losing by four. And that is all I have to say about that. I don’t know what…

It’ll be overshadowed by some other impressive wins that happened tonight (that I don’t know anything about, I don’t think the Bucks even played), but Ja Morant and the Grizzlies just pulled out a really nice victory over Jimmy BUTTler and the cHeat. Unlike a lot of teams (Spurs and Bulls say hi except they…

Ja Morant with another “Ja-dropping” performance. He keeps having games like this, where he puts up a lot of stats (which is cool but anyone can do that) but also has a large amount of genuinely impressive plays (which is cooler and isn’t something everyone can do). Other rookies may have single games like this,…

We know Ja Morant can score. Maybe he doesn’t shoot as many jumpers as some people (me) would maybe want, but he can definitely score well enough with his fancy moves to the basket. Scoring is usually the first step a rookie takes on their way to being a good player, and Morant has already…

It’s unlikely that the NBA will go back and look at this “double-double” performance from Ja Morant, since they really only care about the veracity of assists when it comes to triple-doubles. They have no respect for the quality of stats that their scorekeepers generate, and that’s fine. As long as the point totals are…

I forgot how much I loved teal. Actually, no I didn’t, because the Hornets have been rocking teal for a few years now and they’ve proven that it’s STILL the raddest color out of the whole god-damn palette. But I did forget how much I loved the Grizzlies wearing teal. Bryant Reeves would puke if…
Read MoreJa Morant 20 Points/6 Assists Full Highlights (11/19/2019)
Ja Morant didn’t play particularly well this game. That’s fine; rookies have bad games pretty much all the time. If anything, we should be encouraged by this performance, because he did something that many players never figure out how to do. Which is: put up a good statline while sucking. Most players, when they suck,…

Zion Williamson’s going to have a tough time of it if he wants to make up all the ground he’s lost in the ROTY of the Year race. Ja Morant’s been having tons of big games, which is one thing, but now he’s had a big game, in a win, on national TV. This might…
