After Action Report
In Chicago, the Grizzlies squeaked past the Bulls 99-98. Ugly basketball, but the Grizzlies did just enough. Second-chance points piled up for the Grizzlies; fresh off a statement win, the Grizzlies stayed locked in. The Grizzlies bench chemistry carried them. The Grizzlies rotation plan paid off — leaning into the right spots created real lift. Ugly, but it counts the same in the standings.
