According to Ja Morant, the Memphis Grizzlies ' fate was sealed when Lu Dort collided with him mid-air before Game 3 went into halftime. A nasty spill on the hardwood ruled him out for the final one-and-a-half games of a four-game sweep by the Oklahoma City Thunder.

Here's what Ja Morant said at the team's exit interviews about the Grizzlies' playoff series against the Thunder, his injuries and the offseason.

The Grizzlies were leading 67-40 in the second quarter when Lu Dort undercut Ja Morant on a dunk attempt. That knocked Morant out of the game, and the Grizzlies fell apart without him. The Thunder would go on to win 114-108 to take a 3-0 lead, which all but ended the series.
