After Action Report
The Grizzlies held off the Spurs 117-109. The Spurs couldn't capitalize even when shots wouldn't fall for the Grizzlies. Fresh off a statement win, the Grizzlies stayed locked in; the Spurs are in a full-on tailspin. The Grizzlies bench chemistry carried them. Ugly, but it counts the same in the standings.
What tipped it

- Spurs · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
- Grizzlies · Statement Win Last time out, a 20+ point beating sent a message.
- Grizzlies · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
