Studs in Memphis Grizzlies win vs. Wizards
Steven Adams
He might not show up in the scoring column but Steven Adams was a force to be reckoned with in this game. The center from New Zealand finished with just 10 points but tallied 15 rebounds. Out of his 15 total rebounds, 10 of those were offensive.
Adams alone grabbed more offensive rebounds than the entire Wizards roster. His ability to give Memphis second chance opportunities gave them more scoring chances which they cashed in on allowing them to expand their lead.
He’s fit into his role greatly and is truly the prototype for what should be considered a great role player.
Ja Morant
It is getting to the point where Ja Morant shouldn’t even be listed here as a stud he should just automatically be assumed to have been one. Morant picked up his sixth-straight 30+ point game and continues to dominate the league.
He finished tonight’s action with 34 points, completely outplaying whoever was matched up against him in the backcourt. He is in such a zone right now, it’s scary to think that he is still such a ways away from reaching his full potential.
Morant has gotten better as each game has gone and so have the Memphis Grizzlies. We could be in store for another win streak ahead with this being the third-straight win for Memphis.
