Ja Morant made another addition to his highlight reel on Monday.
Memphis Grizzlies star Ja Morant is not just known for his high-flying and aggressive play style. His insane athleticism was once again on display during the matchup against the Brooklyn Nets on Monday. The Grizzlies star pulled off two jaw-dropping 360-degree layups, leaving fans stunned.
The first 360 came in the first half, as Morant drove toward the basket and executed a flawless spin move, leaving Nic Claxton in his wake.
The second 360 which came later in the game, was more insane. Morant sprinted toward the basket and jumped as if he was going to dunk the ball over Cameron Johnson, but he spun away, did a hand switch, and finished with a smooth, jaw-dropping layup.
Morant’s performance was not limited to his acrobatic dunks. He finished the game with 25 points, 5 rebounds, and nine assists.

Ja Morant’s incredible skills weren’t enough for the Grizzlies who suffered their fourth loss of the NBA season. Morant along with rookie Zach Edey kept the Grizzlies in touching distance in the fourth quarter but Santi Aldama’s miss at the buzzer gave the Nets a narrow 106-104 win.
Edey, who had a rollercoaster start to his NBA career, had his best game, finishing the game with 25 points, 12 rebounds, and four blocks.
Grizzlies will next take on LeBron James’ Los Angeles Lakers at FedExForum on Wednesday.
