After Action Report
The Grizzlies held off the Hornets 120-112. Grizzlies' offense had its way with the Hornets. Grizzlies' high-flyers tilted the pace and the rim; the Grizzlies bent the defense out of shape from deep. The Grizzlies locker room is humming, and it showed. Early returns: the Grizzlies per-player utilization choices fit the identity tonight.
What tipped it
- Grizzlies · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
- Grizzlies · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
- Hornets · Glass Eaters Crashing the boards generates extra possessions and second-chance buckets.
