The clutch moments of an NBA basketball game separate the stars from the others, and Ja Morant is ahead of the pack with regard to having the clutch gene. In just five games this season, he has already had clutch performances in two of the Grizzlies' three wins, including his eighth go-ahead basket in the final 10 seconds of a game against the Phoenix Suns the other night.
The Grizzlies face the Los Angeles Lakers on Halloween night, who just won a game on a buzzer-beater themselves, with Austin Reaves being the clutch player in that one. Ironically, both of the game winners from Morant and Reaves happened on the same night, and within minutes of each other.
