Today, the NBA playoffs continue, and the Memphis Grizzlies have no game to play for a while, but their star Morant still gets a recognition.
Morant has reportedly been declared the NBA's most improved player this season. Morant has been outstanding this season and is a rising star player in the NBA. During the regular season, Morant averaged 33.1 minutes per game, contributing 27.4 points, 5.7 rebounds, 6.7 assists and 1.2 steals.
Morant was named an All-Star starter during All-Star Weekend, indicating that he was widely recognized by fans. On his first All-Star trip of his career, he became a starter, and Morant was still very powerful. Under Morant's leadership, the Grizzlies rushed to the second place in the West this season, beating up the Golden State Warriors and other powerhouses.
Although in the first round of the playoffs, the Grizzlies were inexperienced enough to play with the Minnesota Timberwolves, who also returned to the playoffs. But believe that with more games, the prospects for the Grizzlies and Morant are bright and the future is very bright.
In the NBA, the "Fastest Improving Player of the Year Award" is actually not so popular, because many of the winning players will encounter various difficulties in the second year, such as injuries or decline in status. This is all because a lot of the winning players are role players themselves, and they play a brilliant performance in the right system, but if they leave this system next season, or are valued by the opponent, then they can't continue to play a strong performance.
Morant himself is the Grizzlies' star, he is the system itself, so there should be no such problem. The most important thing for Morant right now is to lead the team to the second round of the playoffs.
