The Memphis Grizzlies continue to be unpredictable on the young season. They finally started a game off hot, but they were unable to continue that momentum. They held the Pelicans to point totals of 13 and 11 in two different quarters but were unable to break double digits in the fourth quarter, scoring just nine points.
Captain Clutch broke 20 points by hitting the free throws to ice the game. Conley played off the ball quite a bit and at times was the only player for the Grizz that was getting the shot he wanted. An uneven shooting line and occasional defensive miscues bring the grade down.
