Ja Morant reveals he played through eye injury in Game 2 vs Warriors

Ja Morant was unstoppable in Game 2 vs the Golden State Warriors and helped the Memphis Grizzlies even the series (1-1).

The superstar guard went for 47 points (15/31 shooting, 5/12 from beyond the arc), 8 rebounds and 8 assists in the contest.

He also revealed he was playing through an eye injury in the fourth quarter, where he scored 18 of his 47 points.

“I’ve got another good eye over here. 20/20 vision right here. Thank God for my right eye,” Ja Morant told reporters afterwards.

Morant and the Grizzlies will aim to re-claim the home-court advantage, as they play Games 3 and 4 in San Francisco.
