After making a strong impact in his return from a six-game absence in Sunday’s 126-109 win over the Orlando Magic, Memphis Grizzlies guard Ja Morant made it clear he wants to stay with the team.
“I’ve got a (Grizzlies) logo on my back, so that should tell you exactly where I want to be,” Morant said after the game. “If anybody in (the locker room) knows me, I’m a very loyal guy.”
Morant scored a game-high 24 points in his first contest back, making 7 of 13 shots from the field, including 3 of 4 on 3-point attempts. He also tied his season high with 13 assists.
