The Memphis Grizzlies beat the Los Angeles Lakers 127-119 on Sunday in California, and Ja Morant had 16 points, five rebounds and 7 assists in the game. 

This week he posted a photo to Instagram from the game, and the photo can be seen in the post that is embedded below from his account. 

The Grizzlies are having an excellent season, and are the fourth seed in the Western Conference with a 29-14 record in 43 games (they beat the Golden State Warriors on Tuesday night).    

Morant is also looking like he should be an All-Star, because he is averaging 24.9 points, 5.7 rebounds and 6.7 assists per game.  

Last season, the Grizzlies surprisingly made the playoffs after winning both of their games in the play-in tournament against the San Antonio Spurs and Golden State Warriors.  

This season, they are much more than just a team looking to squeak into the playoffs, they appear as a legitimate threat to get home-court advantage in the postseason. 

  • DEROZAN PASSES JORDAN ON A LIST FOR THE BULLS: DeMar DeRozan and the Chicago Bulls have been on a roll to start the new season as one of the top teams in the Eastern Conference. DeRozan is a four-time All-Star, and in his first season in Chicago, he recently passed Hall of Famer Michael Jordan on a franchise-record list. CLICK HERE.
  • STEPH AND THE WARRIORS ARE ON FIRE: The Golden State Warriors have not made the playoffs in two seasons, but that appears likely to change this season. They are on fire to start the season led by superstar guard Steph Curry and have one of the best records in the entire NBA. . CLICK HERE.
