After Action Report
The Grizzlies held off the Rockets 104-96. The Grizzlies won despite a cold shooting night — grit beat polish. Grizzlies' high-flyers tilted the pace and the rim; fresh off a statement win, the Grizzlies stayed locked in. Ugly, but it counts the same in the standings.
What tipped it
- Grizzlies · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
- Grizzlies · Statement Win Last time out, a 20+ point beating sent a message.
- Rockets · Ice Cold On a 4+ game losing streak — shots aren't falling.
