by Dan Titus | Grizzlies Correspondent | Sun, Aug 9th 6:00pm EDT
Ja Morant scored 17 points (7-19 FG, 2-4 3PT, 1-1 FT) while dishing out a team-high 10 assists, along with four rebounds, one block, and four turnovers across 41 minutes in a 108-99 loss to the Raptors.
Fantasy Impact:
Morant picked up his second double-double in the bubble amid the Grizzlies fell to 1-5 in six games played in Orlando. Fantasy owners are certainly happy for the counting stats. Still, Morant's day could have been better if he didn't struggle with his shot against a tough Raptors defense that ranks as a top-3 team in defensive efficiency this season. Morant has two games left before preparing for the playoffs, and by the looks of things, his usage rate is going to continue to grow as the team adjusts to missing Jaren Jackson Jr. in the lineup. Morant faces the Celtics on Tuesday.
