Ja Morant's Insane Dunk in China Goes Viral

Memphis Grizzlies star Ja Morant, known for his incredible vertical leap despite his 6'2" height, continued to produce highlight-reel dunks during the past NBA season, even though he was limited to 50 games.

Morant's dunking persisted into the offseason, including during a recent trip to China. At a live event there, he executed a spectacular reverse dunk that generated significant excitement among fans and media present, quickly going viral on social media. Reactions from outlets like NBACentral and ClutchPoints emphasized the dunk's impressiveness, suggesting it would be a top play contender if performed in an NBA game.

Looking ahead, Morant aims to lead the Grizzlies to a bounce-back season following their first-round playoff sweep by the Oklahoma City Thunder, a series he missed the final game of due to a left hip contusion. He and Jaren Jackson Jr. will lead Memphis as they seek improvement after finishing as the No. 8 seed, though they face challenges in a competitive Western Conference strengthened by offseason moves benefiting other top teams.
