Grizzlies star Ja Morant never fails to amaze with his high-flying play and jaw-dropping dunks. But on Saturday night, the 23-year-old uncorked a slam that even he said was the best of his career.
With just over four minutes left in the third quarter of a road game against the Pacers, Morant easily carved his way past a pair of defenders, clearing himself a runway to the rim. At the last moment, Indiana center Jalen Smith slid over to help, but instead offered himself up to be posterized.
Morant and Smith both jumped, with the former cradling the ball with his right hand before unleashing a vicious, one-handed dunk over the Pacers center.
