After Action Report
The Grizzlies survived the Pistons 93-91. The Pistons couldn't capitalize even when shots wouldn't fall for the Grizzlies. The Grizzlies carried the confidence of a hot streak right into this one; Grizzlies' Lockdown identity stifled the opposing offense. The Grizzlies bench chemistry carried them. The Grizzlies rotation plan paid off — leaning into the right spots created real lift. Style points be damned.
