Ja Morant has been one of the more entertaining guards ever since he stepped onto the NBA hardwood. After grabbing the Rookie of the Year honors back in 2020, putting up a solid 17.8/7.3/3.9 stat line, the former #2 pick managed to improve his game furthermore.

Putting up 19.1 points, 7.4 assists, and 4 rebounds last campaign, everyone expected Morant to make his first All-Star selection. However, he was one of the many notable snubs for the same. And this season, the highflyer started the campaign with an aim to make his first-ever ASG selection and prove his doubters wrong.

So far, the 22-year-old has been sensational, to say the least. In only his 3rd year, the 6-foot-3 electric player has been achieving incredible feats while breaking several league and franchise records. Averaging 24.9 points, 6.7 assists, and 5.7 rebounds this season, he is leading the Grizzlies to the 4th best Western Conference 29-14 record.
