The 2022 Playoffs are already shaping up to be one of the most entertaining post-season in a while. The action on the court has been sensational, but the action off the court has been incredibly entertaining. If anyone has been watching the Memphis Grizzlies vs Minnesota Timberwolves, they know exactly what we are talking about.
The Grizz vs T’Wolves series is bound to be exciting on the court because it features two young teams that push the tempo of the game and play. However, it is becoming iconic off the court for the friendly banter between the fathers of the two star players on each team, Tee Morant and Karl-Anthony Towns Sr.
Tee Morant and KAT Sr. had some memorable moments on the sidelines in Game 1, so the NBA on TNT broadcast decided to take it a step further by having reporter Chris Haynes conduct a sideline interview with the two dads talking about the game.

The love between these two dads is evident, even if their kids are competing against each other. After all, both men raised NBA players and it is an experience very few people can claim to have. Considering KAT and Ja Morant are the two leaders of their teams, it is even better to see all of them support each other. It is a game on the court, but a family off it.
The Grizzlies walked out the big winner on the night, taking Game 2 after losing the first. They will now travel to Minnesota, who stole home-court from the Grizzlies with their win in the first game. Ja Morant might not be able to play after sustaining an injury during the game.
Hopefully, this series goes as far as seven games just so the fans can keep seeing Tee Morant and Kat Sr. on the sidelines having the hilarious exchanges they have been having through the first two games.
