  • Sosok pemain Memphis Grizzlies, Ja Morant, muncul sebagai monster di NBA 2021-2022.
  • Ja Morant kini menjadi salah satu pencetak poin terbanyak di NBA.
  • Point Guard berusia 22 tahun ini kini masuk dalam 10 pemain paling produktif di lapangan.

SKOR.id - Pemain muda di NBA 2021-2022 makin menunjukkan sinarnya, salah satunya adalah Point Guard Memphis Grizzlies, Ja Morant.

Pebasket berusia 22 tahun ini mendapat banyak sorotan di awal musim ini. Bagaimana tidak, Ja Morant masuk dalam 10 pemain paling produktif saat ini.

Secara statistik, Ja Morant mencatatkan 25,1 poin per gim, dan sementara berada di atas banyak bintang seperti Luca Doncic, LeBron James, dan James Harden.

Tapi, siapa sosok Ja Morant ini? Apakah penampilannya di musim-musim sebelumnya juga secemerlang ini?

Calon bintang dari Carolina Selatan

Ja Morant memulai petualangannya di tempat kelahirannya, Carolina Selatan, Amerika Serikat. Pemain kelahiran tahun 1999 ini terlihat bakatnya pada saat bermain untuk Amateur Athletic Union. Bahkan, Ia satu tim dengan wonderkid NBA lainnya, Zion Williamson. 

Morant bersekolah di Crestwood High School di Sumter, Carolina Selatan. Dalam dua musim terakhirnya untuk Crestwood, ia mencetak rata-rata 27 poin, 8 rebound, dan 8 assist per gim.

Ia lalu meraih All-Region MVP tiga kali di liga SMA. Saat itu, Morant banyak mencetak poin lewat shoot di paint area. Ja Morant bahkan tidak bisa melakukan dunk sampai dia menduduki kelas senior.

Tak ada yang menyangka. Ja Morant kini menjadi salah satu pemain yang menakutkan, terutama lewat layup, rebound, dan dunknya di bawah keranjang lawan.

Sejak direkrut oleh Memphis Grizzlies pada NBA draft 2019. Ja Morant menandatangani kontrak dua tahun dengan Grizzlies.

Debutnya di NBA pada Oktober 2019 diwarnai dengan kekalahan 101-120 dari Miami Heat. Namun, Ia mencatatkan 14 poin, 4 rebound, 4 assist, satu steal, dan satu blok.

Ia lalu mengakhiri musim 2019-2020 Morant memimpin catatan assist di kalangan rookie dengan rata-rata 7,1 assist per gim. Ia juga mencatatkan 17,8 poin per gim.

Bobol LA Lakers dan Golden State Warriors

Penampilan Ja Morant makin menawan pada musim 2021-2022. Morant makin produktif di musim ketiganya bersama Grizzlies.

Bahkan, di antara 17 laga yang ia sudah lakoni musim ini, Ia mampu tampil menawan pada dua laga melawan tim besar, LA Lakers dan Golden State Warriors.

Grizzlies melawan Lakers pada 25 Oktober 2021, dan menelan kekalahan tipis 118-121. Namun, di laga ini, Ja Morant mencetak 44 poin!

Capaian tertinggi Ja Morant di NBA adalah catatan 44 poin yang ia bukukan pada musim 2020-2021, dalam laga menghadapi San Antonio Spurs.

Selisih 4 angka dari rekor poin tertinggi jelas bukan statistik yang main-main. Ja Morant bahkan mengulangi penampilan impresifnya di laga selanjutnya.

Menghadapi Golden State Warriors, Ja Morant mencatatkan 30 poin dan membawa Grizzlies menang 104-101 lewat overtime.

Kini, Ja Morant sementara mencatatkan 401 poin (25,1 ppg). Magis Ja Morant jelas membuka luas peluang Grizzlies untuk bisa lolos ke babak playoff NBA, karena kini Morant dkk bercokol di posisi keenam klasemen sementara.
