Report: Morant signs multi-year deal with Nike

Murray State standout and projected top-two pick Ja Morant has signed a multi-year endorsement deal with Nike, sources told The Athletic's Shams Charania.

Morant is the most exciting non-Zion Williamson prospect, having gained national attention with highlight-reel dunks while filling up the stat sheet as a sophomore with the Racers.

The Memphis Grizzlies currently own the No. 2 pick and are reportedly locked into drafting Morant to pair with Jaren Jackson Jr. as the centerpieces of their future.

The 6-foot-3 Morant became the first player in NCAA history to average at least 20 points and 10 assists per game. He finished the year with averages of 24.5 points, 10 assists, and 5.7 rebounds in 33 appearances.
