Ja Morant had an eye-popping performance in Game 2 of the Memphis Grizzlies' second-round series against the Golden State Warriors, scoring 47 points to help his team grab a 106-101 victory at FedExForum on Tuesday.
The win tied the series 1-1, and Minnesota Timberwolves veteran Patrick Beverley, who faced Morant and the Grizzlies in the first round, shaded the Warriors for allowing the 2021-22 Most Improved Player to nearly put up 50 points.
