Morant played a very good game this season, playing in 56 games for the Grizzlies, averaging 27.6 points, 5.7 rebounds, 6.7 assists and 1.2 steals per game, and once became a strong contender for MVP. And he also led the Grizzlies to a very good performance, achieving the second record in the league so far this season, which is something that many people did not expect.
Recently, NBA star Chris Russo said on the show that Grizzlies star Morant will have a better career than Iverson. And said: Morant is better than Iverson because he makes the people around him better, Iverson is an extreme contender, a Hall of Fame player, but he is not a great star, if you ask me who will have a better career, who will be more successful in the NBA, Morant will be a lot better than Iverson!
This statement is actually a bit absolute, to know that Iverson still has a very good position in the history of the NBA, and Morant is only a third-year rookie, and the current achievements in the league are only the best rookies and an All-Star, and there is still no way to compare with Iverson!
Morant, who recently missed a game with a knee injury and will miss at least two weeks, will be reassessed in two weeks' time and is expected to return before the playoffs. If Morant can stay fit, his big heart and excellent physical qualities will ensure that he becomes a very good star. But there is also the most important point, that is, whether he can stay healthy, his current style of play is really too much to consume his body, although the playing style is good, but the possibility of injury is very large!
So if Morant wants the NBA to achieve something, then he needs to slowly change his playing style and pay more attention to his body, so that he can survive in the league for a longer time, and then he can talk about whether he can surpass Iverson's achievements!
