Grizzlies had only one shining star in the rooster Ja Morant who put the team back in the best-of-seven series against Warriors after dropping 47 points in the Western Conference play-off series. Memphis was without Dillon Brooks after he was ejected within three minutes of the match Desmond Bane was not himself throughout the match it was clear that he was hurting.
Both teams stayed on each other's toes throughout the match as a nail-biting Game two headed to the fourth quarter with no real lead in sight for Grizzlies or Warriors. Ultimately it was Marant’s free throw and lay ups that laid the groundwork for Memphis to push for a win in the last quarter racing with 8-0 lead at the start and adding to that to win the match. Memphis announced they would not easily fold this season.
