After surrendering 30-or-more points in each of the first three quarters, the Thunder’s defense clamped down in the final frame to outscore the Memphis Grizzlies 38-22 for a 128-122 victory. It was a team-wide effort, with a variety of players and factors coalescing into a clutch come-from-behind victory. Here are the numbers that told the story.
5
3-pointers made by rookie Aleksej Pokuševski in the game, part of a 23-point, 10-rebound, four-assist, one-steal and one-block performance. Pokuševski became the second-youngest player in NBA history to make five 3-pointers in a game behind only LeBron James.
10
Made free throws for Shai Gilgeous-Alexander, tying a personal season-high, and part of a 30-point, four-rebound, five-assist performance for the third-year guard.
