After Action Report
In a track meet, the Grizzlies stunned the Hornets 105-97. The Hornets couldn't capitalize even when shots wouldn't fall for the Grizzlies. Grizzlies' high-flyers tilted the pace and the rim; fresh off a statement win, the Grizzlies stayed locked in. The Grizzlies bench chemistry carried them. Early returns: the Grizzlies per-player utilization choices fit the identity tonight. On paper this one shouldn't have been close — basketball had other ideas.
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.
- Grizzlies · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
