Memphis Grizzlies' Ja Morant made a return to the NBA after an absence of four games. The highly-rated youngster was held out of action due to back soreness after taking a fall into a baseline camera operator on November 25. Despite his lengthy spell on the sidelines, Morant looked hungry for glory as he tore apart the GSW defence on multiple occasions. However, post the game, Ja Morant revealed that he wants the NBA to move the camera operators in order to provide more space for the players.
