Ja Morant struggles with shot, still manages to record triple-double in win

Ja Morant recorded a triple-double in Thursday's 119-106 win over the Bucks, scoring 12 points on 5-of-17 shooting, with 13 rebounds, 10 assists, and six turnovers.

Fantasy Impact:

Morant didn't shoot the ball particularly well in this one, but still managed to notch his second career triple-double. His teammate, Jonas Valanciunas, also recorded a triple-double in the win over the Bucks, which is the just the second time this feat has occurred, the first coming on May 21, 2019 when Stephen Curry and Draymond Green did so against the Trail Blazers. Morant and the Grizzlies will now face either the Trail Blazers or the Suns in a Western Conference Play-In game Saturday to determine who plays the Number one seed Los Angeles Lakers in the first round of the playoffs.
