After Action Report
The Grizzlies held off the Clippers 97-89. The Clippers couldn't capitalize even when shots wouldn't fall for the Grizzlies. Grizzlies' high-flyers tilted the pace and the rim; the Grizzlies answered the bell with a bounce-back effort. The Grizzlies rotation plan paid off — leaning into the right spots created real lift. Style points be damned.
