Morant returned on December 13 in the first game of the Grizzlies vs. Pelicans, and he made a successful stunner, allowing the Grizzlies to reverse the Pelicans by 24 points on the road, adding drama to the game this season. In the final 8 seconds, he completed a throw-and-shoot stunner in a one-on-two situation, which is also a classic stunner in NBA history.
In the game, Morant shot 12-of-24 and scored 34 points, 6 rebounds and 8 assists. His return is very important for the Grizzlies as they didn't perform well at the start of the season. And Morant, as the eye-catching show, although he was reimbursed due to injury in the previous season, his performance this season is very eye-catching, averaging 171 rebound, 25 assists and 09 steals, which is a testament to his strength and potential.
Although the Grizzlies trailed by only 2 points in the final moments of this game, the Pelicans' Joe Holiday played well, leading by 13 points at one point, putting the game in suspense. And Morant, with his skill and courage, stepped up in the final moments and completed that winning throw, making the whole game exciting.
Morant's stunner also thrilled Grizzlies fans, who believe their team can get out of the slump and go to a higher stage under the leadership of the young player. For the NBA, this stunner also allows people to appreciate the charm of basketball games again, and I believe that the future games will be more exciting.
