Memphis Grizzlies stars Ja Morant and Jaren Jackson Jr. are both in the mix for the NBA All-Star game in San Francisco next month.
Grizzlies point guard Ja Morant didn't care that he dunked on Victor Wembanyama after being asked about it postgame.
The Memphis Grizzlies picked up a road win against Victor Wembanyama and the San Antonio Spurs after trailing by double digits.
The Grizzlies beat the Spurs on Wednesday night at the Frost Bank Center, and they'll meet again on Friday night. San Antonio (19-20) will be looking for revenge after Wednesday's loss, while Memphis (26-15) is looking to finish off the four-game road trip with a win.
They have a bit of a cushion as they currently lead the Spurs 102-86. If the Grizzlies keep playing like this, they'll bump their record up to 27-15 in no time. On the other hand, the Spurs will have to make due with a 19-21 record unless they turn things around (and fast).

For the second time in as many games, the San Antonio Spurs will host the Memphis Grizzlies. The Spurs fell to the Ja Morant -led team on Wednesday, losing a 12-point halftime lead, 129-115. Victor Wembanyama only scored 13 points in that game but offered eight blocks and two steals, so another defensive masterclass could be expected.
