“Unleashing the Bears: Are the Grizzlies Poised to Roar into NBA Championship Contention?”
Morant’s numbers are down across the board this year. He’s tied for his worst career field-goal percentage and averaging the most turnovers per game of his career. His free-throw attempts per game, which peaked at 8.1 during his 2022-23 campaign, are down to 6.6. Morant ranks outside the top 50 in DRIP and significantly behind Jaren Jackson Jr. as the best player on the Grizzlies.
Keep in mind, though, that DRIP doesn’t have a medical degree. It is grading Morant solely on his play, not taking into account that he spent the beginning of the year getting back up to speed and trying to adjust his play to avoid further injuries. In the last month before another untimely injury (this time to his hamstring), Morant showed signs of being the weapon he’s been in the past.
