Ja Morant’s sensational Year 3 continued on Saturday night with another captivating performance in the Grizzlies’ 116–110 victory over the Chicago Bulls.
With a jam-packed United Center providing the perfect backdrop, the first-time All-Star served up a number of highlight-reel plays against the best team in the Eastern conference, finishing the night with a career-high 46 points on 15-of-28 shooting (3-of-4 from three) to go along with four rebounds and three assists.
Morant’s stellar effort set the Grizzlies record for most points in a regular-season game, and gave the star point guard his 16th consecutive outing with 20-plus points, also a new franchise record.
