Memphis Grizzlies rookie sensation Ja Morant spoke to the local media after his team's 118-101 win over the Atlanta Hawks Saturday night. Morant finished the game with 24 points, 6 assists, and 5 rebounds. He would share three quick points with me on his team's effort defending Hawks All-Star guard Trae Young, the team's high level of camaraderie and who would take his role with the "You Hear Me?!" if he was the player who had to do the walk-off interview.

The Grizzlies held Trae Young to 16 points on 25 percent shooting from the field and 10 percent from three-point range.  Their team effort not only forced Young to take bad shots but also limited him from getting to the free-throw line. 

The Grizzlies camaraderie is at an all-time high as well, as the team seems to be getting along at all times.  Whether it's support from the bench or Morant joyfully interrupting his teammate's walk-off interviews, the team is just flat out fun.
