. G. Murray State. Ja Morant. 3. player. 24

I want to talk to you all about a dunk. If this dunk could talk it would be dating your girlfriend already. This dunk won World War II. It is the thing you were dreaming about when you wake up really happy and can’t remember the last thing on your mind mid-snooze.

The dunk I am talking about is this one that Morant slammed down on [Redacted] [Redacted] [Redacted], a player who I believe is now incapacitated as a result of Morant’s dunk and shall remain nameless out of respect for the fallen.

When Morant eventually declares for the draft, he will hire an agent and begin talking to NBA teams about why they should pay him a lot of money to play basketball for their franchise. He will have to answer questions about his own skills and more professional questions about work ethic and being on a team. My advice would be to ask those front office executives politely to shut up, hold the phone out in front of his face before they can argue, and show them that mean, mean jam.

Morant put up an insane 26-18 line in this same game and now owns the state of Texas. If the Bulls were smart, they’d let him take over Illinois, too.
