The Grizzlies fell to 2-2 on the season after losing their 11th straight game against the Golden State Warriors on the road (including the postseason). They haven't won a game in San Francisco since October 28, 2021, after winning three of their first four meetings there following the Warriors' move from Oakland in 2019.
The teams were virtually even in the first half as the Grizzlies kept pace with the team that seems to always be in their way when the season is on the line. However, the second half got away from them as the Warriors imposed their will on the young and depleted Grizzlies, but one specific play defined the game and the recent history of their matchups in the Bay Area.
