Memphis Grizzlies 129-115 victory over the San Antonio Spurs 

Ja Morant recorded 21 points and 12 assists, leading the Memphis Grizzlies to a 129-115 victory over the San Antonio Spurs on Wednesday night. Desmond Bane added 21 points, Santi Aldama scored 20, and Jaren Jackson Jr. contributed 19 as Memphis broke out of a slump, having lost four of its last six games. The Grizzlies aggressively challenged Spurs rookie Victor Wembanyama early, with Morant hitting a one-handed floater over the 7-foot-3 center for the game’s opening basket. Although Morant later soared for a one-handed dunk over Wembanyama, it was waved off due to a referee’s whistle.

Grizzlies rookie Zach Edey also impressed, scoring over Wembanyama with a hook shot and a powerful dunk. Spurs rookie Stephon Castle had a season-high 26 points, while Wembanyama finished with 13 points, 12 rebounds, and eight blocks—all in the first half. Memphis dominated the second half, outscoring San Antonio 78-52.
