In a wild Game 1 that featured a controversial ejection, multiple lead changes and clucth shots from both sides, the Golden State Warriors were able to hang on for a one-point victory over the Memphis Grizzlies to take a 1-0 lead on the road in the second round series.
With Draymond Green ejected before halftime, the Warriors mounted a second comeback to steal game one after Klay Thompson buried a 3-pointer with 36 second remaining. Despite missing free throws with the chance to extend Golden State’s lead, Thompson got a stop on the other end against Ja Morant to end the game, 117-116.
Despite Morant and Jaren Jackson Jr. combining for 67 points and 10 3-pointers, it wasn’t enough to take out the Warriors in Game 1. Jordan Poole led the Warriors off the bench with 31 points on 12-of-20 shooting from the field in a team-high 38 minutes.
