Ja Morant isolated against Wemby and the crowd was electric. Morant crossed him over and got to the rim, but Wemby recovered and got the block off the glass. – 8:13 PM

On how Wemby is on track to become the first rookie to lead the NBA since 1985-86.
He faces Memphis after recording a season-best 8 blocks against them in November.
“A guy who can come out of nowhere and just eviscerate anything,” Taylor Jenkins said.

One of @JaMorant ‘s top highlight dunks came with a hammer against San Antonio’s Jakob Poeltl last Feb. Poeltl is 7-foot. Which means Morant is right now thinking about a defensive switch to try to recreate that slam against 7-foot-3 Victor Wembanyama. – 7:00 PM

Former assistant Darko Rajakovic coaches against the Grizz tomorrow. He still has a lot of love in Memphis.
“I have never had any other coach pull up and show me clips of backdoor passes in like the second European league in Israel. But he would do that.”dailymemphian.com/subscriber/sec… – 6:57 PM

Mark Daigneault on Al Horford: “I told him this multiple times… but every 1st year NBA head coach should be as lucky as I was to have Al Horford.”
Said his best memory of him in his time here was being the first guy to celebrate Lu Dort’s game-winner vs Spurs with no fans – 6:35 PM

Can you take anything from the previous game with Memphis?
Gregg Popovich: “No different team with him. He’s amazing.”
No need to clarify who that is. – 6:34 PM

Mamadi Diakite on getting to play for Pop: “When I first met him, my impression was a big, ‘Whoa.’ I was starstruck because I’ve watched him since the beginning before I started playing basketball. So, getting to meet him and greet him and play for him is a great accomplishment.” – 3:38 PM
