The highly anticipated matchup between Ja Morant and Victor Wembanyama drew plenty of attention on Tuesday night, but it was one specific play that left fans talking. During the Memphis Grizzlies vs. San Antonio Spurs game, Morant challenged Wembanyama at the rim and produced a highlight-reel moment in the form of an impressive crossover followed by a thunderous dunk from the 24-year-old guard.
Morant was asked about the dunk after the 106-98 victory and offered a great response.
“That’s what everybody wanted, so that’s my late Christmas gift,” Morant said, per Damichael Cole of The Commercial Appeal.
