Initially, the 2019 NBA draft class wasn’t expected to produce a top point guard prospect. Well, have the tables turned over the past few months as Murray State’s Ja Morant has had a meteoric rise up draft boards. And in this latest update to my personal big board, Morant set a record for the highest jump of 12 spots right in front of Trae Young last season.
Morant has also been breaking the internet this week with two insanely athletic highlight dunks. In the Ohio Valley Conference, Morant’s Racers are running away from the competition early as they look to reach March Madness once more with this new hype train leading them.
