Wallace View – Grizzlies 112, Wizards 103 (OT)

Grind City Media

After playing nearly 31 minutes the previous night in New York, Marc Gasol was supposed to be limited to around 20 minutes on Sunday as part of the Grizzlies’ plan to proactively manage the franchise anchor’s workload in his first season back from foot surgery.

There was one problem: Gasol had other plans. Especially when his second three-pointer of the night with 15.7 seconds left in the fourth quarter forced overtime against Washington. Good luck at that point finding anyone at FedExForum with the guts to force the 7-foot-1, 255-pound giant to leave the game.
