After Action Report
In Memphis, the Grizzlies outlasted the Suns 81-74. Grizzlies' offense had its way with the Suns. Grizzlies' veteran poise eliminated the costly mistakes; the Suns owned the glass, generating extra possessions. Suns' per-player workload didn't match the gameplan. Style points be damned.
What tipped it
- Suns · Glass Eaters Crashing the boards generates extra possessions and second-chance buckets.
