Ja Morant is fearless when attacking the rim as we've already seen so far throughout his rookie season in the NBA.
The Memphis Grizzlies second overall pick in the 2019 NBA Draft has delivered several jaw dropping plays, but on Saturday he delivered his most outrageous attempt yet.
Halfway throughthe first quarter, Morant picked up a loose ball and drove down the lane where Cleveland Cavaliers forward Kevin Love was waiting to try and pick up the charge.
Morant decided to try and emulate Vince Carter's famous dunk from the 2000 Olympics as he tried to jump over Love and throw down the dunk.
Quick little reminder that Morant stands at 6'3" tall (191cm), while Love is 6'8" (203cm).
The attempt alone is just mind-boggling, the fact he tried it left commentators, fans and teammates in disbelief.
Social media quickly erupted following Morant's attempted murder dunk over the NBA star with the Grizzlies showing off just how unbelievable the attempt was with an image from under the basket.

A clip of the dunk quickly whipped around social media with Morant's name shortly after joining the trending list.
Ja Morant might've had the coolest looking missed poster dunk attempt of the year. Rookie CLEARED Kevin Love on his attack. Crowd here is still amazed.
