#NBATopShotThis: Ja Morant skies for one-handed alley-oop dunk

Ja Morant can fly.

On Monday, the second-year guard had one of the best dunks of his young career when he threw down a vicious one-handed alley-oop off of a pass from Grayson Allen in transition.

Morant shared a video of his dunk postgame with the caption, "i got my own airline ✈️"

Morant finished with 13 points (5-14 FG), 10 assists and three rebounds in the Memphis Grizzlies' 101-90 win over the Chicago Bulls. He's now averaging 18.9 points, 7.4 assists and 3.5 rebounds per game on the season.

Morant already has eight different moments on the Top Shot marketplace, four of which are dunks. The top sale for one of his moments is a whopping $100,000 (USD).
