This photo of Ja Morant's poster on Wemby that didn't count should be in a museum
Yes, Ja Morant dunked all over Hector Banana-Bread — er, Victor Wembanyama after the whistle on Wednesday night in the Memphis Grizzlies’ win over the San Antonio Spurs.
But no matter. This was sick. This was ridiculous. I’m counting it as a thing simply because both players participated in the posterization, including Wemby, who gave it his all trying to stuff Morant.

Nope. Didn’t work. Morant threw it down. And the photo of the posterization, which you can see above, is so perfect. It’s snapped by USA TODAY Sports’ Scott Wachter.
I’ve also included another view via Getty Images’ Ronald Cortes, and please: someone go hang in these in a museum or something.
