After Action Report

In Memphis, the Grizzlies pulled away from the Rockets 120-104. Shots fell that probably shouldn't have, and the Grizzlies cashed in. The Grizzlies owned the glass, generating extra possessions; Grizzlies' outside barrage was a constant threat. The Grizzlies locker room is humming, and it showed. The Grizzlies rotation plan paid off — leaning into the right spots created real lift.
