'Aggressive' Morant has fine support with 12th career triple-double in win over Bucks
-
MEMPHIS - It was a combination of everything, Ja Morant being aggressive and his teammates all playing well.
In the end, his 12th career triple-double fired the Memphis Grizzlies to a 122-99 National Basketball Association (NBA) home victory over the Milwaukee Bucks on Oct 31, as the Houston Rockets edged out the Dallas Mavericks.
Bucks star Giannis Antetokounmpo scored 37 points and grabbed 11 rebounds, but teammate Damian Lillard was held to four points on one-of-12 shooting.
Brook Lopez was Milwaukee's next-highest scorer with 12 points as the 2021 champions dropped their fourth straight after opening the season with a win over the injury-hit Philadelphia 76ers.
Morant was the engine for Memphis, scoring 26 points with 10 rebounds and 14 assists.
"I just came out being aggressive, took what the defense gave me," said the point guard, who piled up 21 points in the first half to help Memphis build a 70-48 lead.
