One game after scoring a career-high 46 points(Update: He topped that in Monday night’s game!), Ja Morant threw down the most incredible dunk of the 2021-22 NBA season.

The Memphis Grizzlies’ superstar point guard — that’s important to keep in mind; this is a POINT GUARD — put San Antonio Spurs big man Jakob Poeltl on a poster with a soul-crushing dunk in the second quarter.

Just over two minutes later, Morant supplied another amazing highlight with this shot to beat the halftime buzzer:

This dude is in just third NBA season (and he’s averaging 27.1 points).

Morant’s crazy plays have had Twitter going wild. Here’s a sampling of the reaction:
