Memphis Grizzlies point guard Ja Morant is one of the most exciting young players in the NBA. Even though he has only finished a single season in the league, he has caught the eyes of basketball fans around the world. It started during his time at Murray State, a relatively small basketball program.
Just a few years ago, Morant was completely unknown. He wasn’t just an underrated prospect, he was completely unranked in high school. His only offer, which came from Murray State, came while a coach was scouting another player.
