Ja Morant Drops Franchise-Record 52 Points in Grizzlies' Win Over Spurs
The Ja Morant show continues.
Morant led the Memphis Grizzlies to a 118-105 victory over the San Antonio Spurs on Monday behind a career-high and franchise-record 52 points along with seven rebounds. He shot a blistering 22-of-30 from the field and made all four of his three-pointers while making some history in the process:

Morant was more than unstoppable.
He also dazzled with multiple jaw-dropping plays, including a monster dunk in transition and a buzzer-beater to end the first half:
It was more of the same for the All-Star, who dropped 46 points in Saturday's win over the Chicago Bulls.
