After Action Report
The Grizzlies outlasted the Trail Blazers 116-109 in overtime. Grizzlies' scorers couldn't be contained. Shots just aren't falling for the Grizzlies lately; Grizzlies' outside barrage was a constant threat. Whispers of a Trail Blazers locker-room rift aren't helping. The Grizzlies rotation plan paid off — leaning into the right spots created real lift.
