Jaren Jackson Jr. of the Memphis Grizzlies was recently on the “Podcast P” show and talked about the many talents of his teammate, Ja Morant.
He spoke about the crazy things Morant does during warm-ups and even discussed one time when Morant dunked over him.
Jackson painted a picture of Morant leaping into the air, receiving a reverse alley-oop, and impressing everyone on the team.
Morant responded to a video of the conversation, shared by ClutchPoints.
He didn’t say much and just included a pair of laughing emojis.

Jackson’s comments prove that Morant is a wildly talented young player.
The fact that Morant at 6-foot-3 can dunk over Jackson, who is 6-foot-11, is quite remarkable.
No matter how much Jackson makes light of the move, it shows the skills Morant has.
That is part of the reason why many Grizzlies fans are so frustrated by the recent off-court actions by Morant.
He is compromising his future as a player and is gaining a bad reputation.
Of course, he is also hurting the team too because he is missing games due to his suspension.
How much will his 25-game absence affect the Grizzlies at the start of 2023-24?
They have found a lot of victory even without Morant in the past but they surely want him back as soon as possible.
And they are hoping this is the last time they lose him.
Over the last few years, Jackson and Morant have created a strong bond.
They impress each other in practice games and then impress the rest of the world during the NBA season.
