Memphis

Grizzlies STATS

The Grizzlies went all in on Ja Morant when they used their second overall pick on him back in 2019. So far, the 21-year-old has paid the team dividends, as he has not only established himself as the best player on the roster, but also as one of the most promising young studs in the NBA today.

After a memorable debut campaign for the Grizzlies last season, Morant has taken his game to a higher level this term. Over the first half of the season, the 6-foot-3 point guard has put up averages of 19.8 points, 3.3 rebounds, 7.7 assists, and 1.0 steals. He's the biggest reason Memphis is currently battling for a playoff spot in a ruthless Western Conference, and the rate at which he develops over the next few years will have a significant impact on this franchise's future.
