Ja Morant

PG, Memphis Grizzlies

Ja Morant saved his best for last, scoring a career-high 35 points in 42 minutes during Saturday's loss to the Blazers, chipping in eight assists and four rebounds.

The Grizzlies fell agonizingly short of forcing another game against the Blazers and unfortunately, their season has come to an end. Morant led all scorers with 35 points and almost carried Grizzlies to victory. The favorite to secure Rookie of the Year honors, Morant has had a productive season, although there are certainly a couple of holes in his fantasy game. He should be a hot target when draft season rolls around and those chasing the young star will likely have to use a third or fourth-round pick to secure his services.
