Thursday night (4/4) the Memphis Grizzlies stunned the Miami Heat with a thrilling 112-110 victory at Kaseya Center, thanks to a buzzer-beating shot from Ja Morant.
Morant delivered a vintage performance, racking up 30 points, 8 assists, and 6 rebounds, but it was his final shot that stole the show. With the game tied and just 3.2 seconds remaining, Morant took the inbounds pass, weaved through defenders, and nailed a tough step-back jumper as the horn sounded. The Grizzlies bench erupted, and Heat fans watched in disbelief. Memphis overcame a 10-point fourth-quarter deficit, showing resilience and clutch execution down the stretch. Desmond Bane added 22 points, while Jaren Jackson Jr. contributed 16 and 3 blocks.
The win marks a statement performance for a Grizzlies squad pushing for playoff positioning. Next game: Memphis takes on the Pistons Saturday night at 6:00 p.m. on 92.9 FM ESPN.
