The Grizzlies beat the Clippers at home to win three straight. The appearance of Morant has raised the Grizzlies' tenacious fighting spirit and mental strength to the next level. As the young roster becomes more complete and mature, the Grizzlies are moving closer to the top teams. This season, the Grizzlies have a record of 38 wins and 18 losses, ranking third in the West. And such a record, placed in the east is enough to dominate the top of the list.
The Clippers, which are short of major generals, have long lost their former competitiveness. Although Tyrone lu can be called the king of reversals, the story of counterattack is always rare, more of a crushing of the power gap. In the face of the momentum of the Grizzlies' youngsters, the Clippers quickly collapsed, and the outbreak of Morant jr. Jarren Jackson directly expanded the point difference to 30+, so that the three quarters were clocked in, and the entire last quarter was reduced to garbage time.
Morant Jr. Jaren Jackson jr. both played less than 26 minutes, and the "King of the World" made 12-of-19 shooting and 1-of-2 three-pointer for 30 points, 7 boards and 5 assists. Jaren Jackson Jr. was even more effective on the inside, scoring 8-of-14 from the field and 1-of-3 from three-point range to 16 points, 11 boards and one block. Among them, Jaren Jackson Jr. grabbed 8 rebounds in the frontcourt, which made the opponent shudder.
The Grizzlies' terrifying strength gave them a huge advantage of 34 points early. Morant Andrea Jalen Jr. is already a rising star. Three quarters of punching cards, brushing records, creating milestones, the Grizzlies are on the road to rise.
This season, Morant averaged 33.1 minutes per game and could get 26.5 points, 5.9 boards, 6.8 assists and 1.3 steals, shooting 49.3% from the field. In the Grizzlies, in addition to Morant, there are four people who average double-doubles per game, Merton averaging 9.8 points per game, Jones averaging 8 points per game, Kyle Anderson averaging 7.9 points per game, and Williams averaging 7.4 points per game. Before they knew it, the Grizzlies already had an excellent lineup depth.
As of now, the Grizzlies have an excellent record of no. 3 in the league. Perhaps the Grizzlies are still not a hot championship team in terms of superstar appearance and overall strength, but their youthful vitality, positive morale and strong beliefs make them enough to be spoilers in the playoffs.
