Ja Morant slams poster dunk over Jakob Poeltl, then hits a buzzer beater in 0.4 seconds

Ja Morant has gotten close so many times. Dunks going in and out have been good enough to make his highlight videos and be placed on posters across Memphis. Just ask Anthony Davis and Kevin Love.

Morant created one of the most poster-worthy dunks of his NBA career Monday when he slammed it home against San Antonio Spurs 7-footer Jakob Poeltl.

The FedExForum crowd was sent into a frenzy. Morant took off from the edge of the paint area and jumped so quickly that Poeltl wasn't able to time his steps.

Morant wasn't done yet. With 0.4 seconds left in the first half, Steven Adams launched a 90-foot pass to the left corner, where Morant jumped, tipped the ball and nailed a buzzer-beater as the clock expired.

Even Morant was amazed as he ran to center court to look at the replay on the videoboard while being mobbed by teammates. The pass from Adams was also one of the best this season.

Morant ended the first half with 29 points on 12-for-15 shooting.
