WATCH: Ja Morant Meets With Lil Baby After Grizzlies vs. Hawks Game
Defeating the Atlanta Hawks on the road on Sunday evening, the Memphis Grizzlies kept their NBA-best winning streak alive. Winners of their last six games, the Grizzlies continue to strengthen their grip on the second seed as the NBA season winds down.
Ja Morant returned to the starting lineup for Memphis in this game, after coming off the bench for his first two games since returning from a suspension. Still on a minutes limit, Morant played just 29 minutes in the victory over Atlanta, but finished with 27 points, six assists, and three rebounds.
The stars were out in Atlanta on Sunday night, including rapper Lil Baby. Morant linked up with the Atlanta rapper after the game, and gave him a signed jersey. The moment with Morant and Lil Baby was captured by the Grizzlies, and it comes one day after Morant received an encouraging message from NBA YoungBoy's label as well.
It is always cool to see the intersection between music in sports, and there has been quite a bit of that recently with Morant and the Memphis Grizzlies. Gucci Mane was also in attendance at the Hawks vs. Grizzlies game, as he performed on the court at halftime. It was a fun night in Atlanta, and even more fun for the Grizzlies, as they were able to continue their winning streak and push it to six games.
