Ja Morant

Hardwood Houdini has come up with a blockbuster trade proposal that lands Ja Morant on the Boston Celtics in the offseason.

Memphis similarly rose meteorically during the season’s second half but can also be due for a letdown. The wrong postseason matchup could certainly do the trick. In general, the future is a more interesting place to look regarding these two teams than an ultimately meaningless regular-season finale.

Ja Morant, Jaren Jackson Jr., Steven Adams and Dillon Brooks are among the Memphis Grizzlies who are out for their regular season finale Sunday.

However, the Grizzlies chose to keep players fresh instead of push for that record on the second game of a back-to-back. Want to stay informed on the latest Memphis sports news? The Memphis Grizzlies have nothing to play for in Sunday's regular season finale except staying healthy.

Memphis Grizzlies guard Ja Morant will not play Sunday in the team's game against the Boston Celtics.

We go over some of the best betting options for Sunday's matchup between the Boston Celtics and Memphis Grizzlies.

This is an easy choice as the Celtics still have a potential higher seed to play for tonight. Boston (50-31) lost a crucial game to Milwaukee on Thursday, a loss that left the Celtics sitting one game back of the No. 2 seed Bucks in the Eastern Conference standings. Memphis (56-25) has long clinched the No. 2 seed in the Western Conference and effectively have nothing to play for in tonight’s finale.

Warriors star Draymond Green thinks Ja Morant is an MVP candidate, not an MIP candidate. Jordan Poole is the MIP candidate.

Morant’s Grizzlies secured the No. 2 seed in the playoffs over Green’s Warriors. The young star is leading Memphis with averages of 27.4 points, 6.7 assists, and 5.7 rebounds per game. “Ja Morant was incredible last year. “The award is called the Most Improved, not who had the best year,” Green told ClutchPoints. “That’s the MVP award actually, and I think a lot of times we get confused when talking about the Most Improved Award or who in that group is having the best year, but no disrespect to Ja Morant, but Ja Morant is an MVP candidate.”

Addressing reporters this weekend, the Golden State veteran Green touched on the Most Improved Player Award and explained why Warriors teammate Jordan Poole, ...

Player A is Morant, who made the leap this season from a star to a superstar. Player B is Poole, who made the leap this season from a fringe rotation piece to a legitimate secondary option. The crux of Green’s argument appears to be that Morant was already an excellent player last season while Poole was barely making an impact. After all, this was the season that Morant truly became a box-office draw as well as the leading man for a true title contender. If we’re going by what the title of the award is, what the name of the award is, then it’s easily Jordan.” Ja Morant was f–king incredible last year.

If you ask Golden State Warriors veteran Draymond Green, he thinks Jordan Poole should be the NBA's Most Improved Player of Ja Morant.

Poole has also been automatic from the free-throw line. Morant, a former first-round pick of the Grizzlies, has been sensational this year for his team. Does Green have a case in this case, or is there no way that Morant won’t be winning it?

Golden State Warriors star Draymond Green lobbied for teammate Jordan Poole to be the NBA's Most Improved Play "The award is called the most improved.

He is the most improved." "The award is called the most improved. This season, Golden State is looking at the No. 3 seed thanks to Poole's 18.4 points, 4.0 assists and 3.4 rebounds per game. Ja Morant isn't the Most Improved Player. He was f--king incredible last year. When you look around, the most improvement has been Jordan Poole and that goes without saying. Not who had the best year.
