On Friday night in Cleveland, Ja Morant came up just a little short of completely humiliating Kevin Love with an incredible dunk.  The Grizzlies young star almost jumped over the 6′ 10″ Love after taking off from just inside the free throw line.

The only thing that saved Love from being the victim of one of the nastiest dunks of all-time was that Morant appeared to lose his grip on the ball as he went to throw the ball down.

After the game, Love, who was very impressed with the rookie, joked that Morant almost ended his professional career with the dunk attempt.
