The high-flying guard has had several impressive highlights this season, one of which came against the Miami Heat on Wednesday.</p><p>In the third quarter, Morant sent KZ Okpala to the floor with a nasty crossover and drove straight to the paint for the easy bucket, making the entire sequence extra saucy.</p><figure class="op-interactive"><blockquote class="twitter-tweet"><p dir="ltr" lang="in">JA MORANT 👀 <a href="https://t.co/fqGQ9bRSjr" target="_blank">pic.twitter.com/fqGQ9bRSjr</a></p><p>— Ballislife.com (@Ballislife) <a href="https://twitter.com/Ballislife/status/1372381193954541569?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw" target="_blank">March 18, 2021</a></p></blockquote><p></p></figure><p>Aside from the highlight, it was a good day for Morant and the Grizzlies as they went on to <a href="https://sports.yahoo.com/nba/miami-heat-memphis-grizzlies-2021031729/">snap the five-game winning streak of the Miami Heat</a>.

The Heat, meanwhile, have bounced back from their mediocre first half after winning 11 of their 12 games prior to Wednesday’s contest.</p><p>If the Grizzlies want to make a final push, Ja Morant must continue to lead, with or with no highlight moves.
