Ja Morant

Elite rim protectors haven’t passed every test until they’ve dealt with No. 12 from the Memphis Grizzlies speeding into the lane. Fearless in the face of a battle against the NBA’s No. 1 shot-blocker, Ja Morant lives up to his reputation as one of the game’s most electrifying talents, putting the San Antonio Spurs on ice with a swift misdirection dribble before levitating through the air for a passionate two-handed flush. Sending a jolt through the arena, the two-time All-Star brought the highlights in abundance in the victory on January 2, 2024, energizing the team with a game-high 26 points, five rebounds, 10 assists, one steal and three 3-pointers to open the new calendar year in style.
