See Ja Morant's highlight block, alley-oop in OT of Memphis Grizzlies' win over Knicks

Ja Morant might not have made the game-winning shot in regulation but he delivered an insane sequence in overtime during the Memphis Grizzlies' season opener.

Morant chased down Knicks guard Jalen Brunson and pinned his shot on the backboard with an incredible block from behind. The Grizzlies' All-Star then followed that by dribbling down the court and throwing an alley-oop pass to Brandon Clarke.

It hearkened back to Morant's most famous block last season when he nearly pinned a shot against the backboard against the Los Angeles Lakers. It was also revenge for Brunson drawing a charge against Morant to end regulation, nullifying his potential game-winner.

As ESPN's Mike Breen noted on the telecast, "He doesn't jump. He launches." Just another Morant highlight for hhis impressive resume.
