On Thursday evening, the Memphis Grizzlies played the Pacers in Indiana.
The Grizzlies lost by a score of 127-113.
Via Dustin Dopirak of The Indianapolis Star: “Pacers won the period 50-26. They were 16 of 23 from the floor, 7 of 12 from 3, 11 of 11 at the line, 1.86 points per possession. Grizzlies 10 of 26, 3 of 14, 3 of 4, 0.94 points per possession. Turner 15 points and Haliburton 10 in the quarter alone.”
Their biggest struggles came in the second quarter.
Ja Morant finished the loss with just 12 points and six assists while shooting 4/15 from the field and 0/3 from the three-point range in 30 minutes of playing time.
After the game, he made a blunt comment when he met with the media.
Morant (h/t Grind City Media): “Im just trying to find my rhythm. Gotta do it in a better way, don’t force shots… Just trying to get in a rhythm… I’ll figure it out. I forced some shots today… I just gotta figure out how to be better.”
Despite his tough showing, Morant is still averaging 20.4 points, 4.2 rebounds, 7.4 assists and 1.2 steals per contest while shooting 44.2% from the field and 31.4% from the three-point range in 33 games.
With the loss to Indiana, the Grizzlies dropped to 36-19 in 55 games, which has them as the third seed in the Western Conference.
They have gone 6-4 over their last ten (and are in the middle of a two-game losing streak).
Ja Morant is among the best players in the NBA at just 25.
The former Murray State star has spent his entire six-year career playing for the Memphis Grizzlies.
While it’s been an up-and-down tenure, Morant is one of the most notable players in the league.
