After Action Report

The Grizzlies fended off the Spurs 102-95. Execution down the stretch made the difference. Second-chance points piled up for the Grizzlies; fresh off a statement win, the Spurs stayed locked in. The Grizzlies bench chemistry carried them. The Grizzlies rotation plan paid off — leaning into the right spots created real lift. Ugly, but it counts the same in the standings.

  • Grizzlies · Glass Eaters Crashing the boards generates extra possessions and second-chance buckets.
