The Grizzlies were 20-5 without Ja Morant heading into last night, and the Warriors saw why. They’re a MUCH better defensive team without him. More analysis here, at @TheAthletic

The Warriors are shooting 35.6% from the field and have missed 24 of 29 3-pointers. Steph and Klay are a combined 2 of 17 from 3-point range. Memphis sans Ja Morant shooting miserably as well but has 25 bench points, 42 points in the point and 13 fast break points. Grizzlies up 7 pic.twitter.com/OOm6cB0fLW – 11:55 PM
