Ja Morant Mocks Karl-Anthony Towns Following Comeback Win
The Timberwolves experienced an epic collapse last night.
Ja Morant and the Memphis Grizzlies seemed truly down and out last night as they played against the Minnesota Timberwolves in Game 3 of their first-round series. The Timberwolves had a 26-point lead in the first half and they even had a 21-point lead in the second. Despite this, the T-Wolves experienced one of the worst collapses in playoff history as they allowed the Grizzlies to get on a 21-0 run in the fourth quarter.
In the end, the Grizzlies were able to pull off the win, and now, they have a 2-1 lead in the series. It was a truly embarrassing predicament to be in for the T-Wolves, and it is made even worse by the fact that they were talking a lot of smack throughout the game, and it was all picked up through hot mics.

For instance, when the game was getting a bit out of hand early on, Karl-Anthony Towns was making fun of the Grizzlies, saying “we in Minnesota now.” The internet never misses anything and when the T-Wolves ended up losing the game, fans took to Twitter to post the audio as a way to make fun of Towns.
Even Morant couldn’t help but get in on the fun as he took to Twitter as well with a quote tweet of the clip, saying “we in Minnesota now.” Of course, Morant was simply mocking Towns and there is no doubt that this is a message to the T-Wolves. You can never count out the Grizzlies, and last night was a prime example of what happens if you get a little too cocky.
Now, the Timberwolves will look to tie up this series. If they can’t get it done, then this series will most certainly be out of reach.
