At one point, the “Memphis Grizzlies”-“Indiana Pacers” game became secondary.
Everything else was a footnote when Grizzlies guard Ja Morant took a wild dunk on Pacers forward Jaylen Smith. The Rookie of the Year candidate was the highlight of the Grizzlies’ 130-112 win on Saturday.
Desmond Bain led Memphis with 25 points and Morant had 23. The slam was Morant’s second grand slam of the week. He also released San Antonio Spurs center Jakob Poetl on Thursday.
