Getting your Trinity Audio player ready...

The Memphis Grizzlies’ All-Star guard put on quite a display against the Bulls, doing 360 layups, throwing down a vicious alley-oop dunk, and hitting his three-pointers. Ja Morant scored a regular-season franchise-record 46 points, leading the Grizzlies to a win over the Bulls 116-100. Morant broke Mike Miller‘s previous record (45 points) set in 2007.
