Latest news and updates about the Grizzlies
The Nets “rested” Ziaire Williams vs the Sacramento Kings Sunday. It was well-deserved after what has become a breakout month of March in which he’s put up the kind of numbers the Grizzlies hoped for when they took him with the 10th pick in the 2021 NBA Draft and when the Nets traded for him […]
Sorry for the miss on the Game Thread last night, y’all. We had a miscommunication on the game coverage sheet, and I was working one of my other jobs last night, so I couldn’t just jump in. Anyway, enough apologies, on to the game. The Houston Rockets got a win last night, dowing the Memphis […]
I hate to be the “I told you so” guy (he said, lying), but this was my last line for the Minnesota preview. It all adds up to a crushing loss to an undermanned team on national television tonight. It’s the death knell for this iteration of the Houston Rockets. Again, that was before Houston […]
Coming off a dominant win against the Miami Heat, the Spurs traveled to the FedEx Forum to take on the Memphis Grizzlies for the final time this season. De’Aaron Fox and Luke Kornet did not play due to their respective injuries, and the Grizzlies had eight players ruled out. As a result, Dylan Harper started […]
Out of all of the San Antonio Spurs’ blowout victories over the last month, Wednesday’s 123-98 win over the Memphis Grizzlies felt different. It wasn’t too long ago when the Spurs were on the other end of games like this – playing multiple players on 10-day contracts and two-ways. Those were brutal, demoralizing losses that […]
Now that I’m writing these recap articles, blowouts like this can be a little frustrating. The reason is that I find myself looking at the box score as the second half progresses and thinking things like, “Wow, the Spurs could hold Memphis to 70 points on 20 field goals if they really wanted to, but […]
The night never really gave the Memphis Grizzlies a chance to breathe. From the opening tip, the San Antonio Spurs played like a team with something to prove—sharp, connected, and relentless. The ball moved with purpose, the defense swarmed, and by the time the first quarter buzzer sounded, San Antonio had already built a cushion that felt heavier than […]
Another inferior, short-handed opponent, another Spurs blowout victory. It seems San Antonio is done taking lesser teams lightly as they continued their trend of blowing everyone out, both good and bad. This time, the Memphis Grizzlies were the victim. While the Spurs admittedly got complacent and took the second quarter off after a 38-19 start, […]

The Brooklyn Nets are giving Malachi Smith an extended look. After inking him to a 10-day contract on March 13, the Nets are renewing the combo guard’s 10-day deal, per Hoopshype’s Michael Scotto. After going undrafted out of Gonzaga in 2023, Smith bounced around the G League, spending time with the Trailblazers, Bucks, and Grizzlies […]
The Memphis Grizzlies have been a disaster this season. It’s been an even worse season for Ja Morant, as he’s only managed to play in 20 games due to a litany of injuries. Morant, who was looked at a few years ago and one of the young star faces of the league, has had a […]
The Atlanta Hawks returned to winning ways — and an 11th consecutive victory at home — with a lopsided 146-107 victory over the Memphis Grizzlies on Monday night at State Farm Arena. The Hawks — without Jalen Johnson — were led by Nickeil Alexander-Walker’s 28 points, while Onyeka Okongwu and Jonathan Kuminga both added 16 […]
The Atlanta Hawks delivered one of their most complete performances of the season Monday night, rolling past the Memphis Grizzlies 146-107 behind a balanced offensive attack and relentless pace at State Farm Arena. Atlanta (40-32) seized control early and never let up, outscoring Memphis in every quarter but the fourth while shooting efficiently and spreading […]
It’s a good ol’ southern battle between the Atlanta Hawks (39-32) and the Memphis Grizzlies (24-46) tonight in State Farm Arena. Jalen Johnson (left shoulder inflammation) has been ruled out of tonight’s contest for the second game in a row. Starting lineup: Please join in the comments below as you follow along. Where, When, and […]
The Jayson Tatum return has been riveting. Every shot attempt, rebound, pass, and even high-five over these first seven games has been scrutinized. The overall early returns on the Tatum comeback have been sensational; however, his performance against the Memphis Grizzlies is a good reminder that he still has a way to go before he […]
The Celtics went 4-0 since my last column, notching a solid win over the Warriors, and some uneven performances against the Wizards, Suns, and Grizzlies. The negative way of looking at this is that the C’s really shouldn’t have struggled against the Grizzlies (24-45), and probably shouldn’t have had such a hard time with the […]
LaMelo Ball and Brandon Miller combined for 51 points as the Charlotte Hornets handled the tanking Memphis Grizzlies, 124-101. The Summary The Hornets hit the Grizzlies with a flurry of threes to start the game, and it looked like they were going to outclass the Grizzlies from the start. They built a double digit lead […] The post Recap/Analysis: Hornets cruise to easy win over Grizzlies first appeared on At The Hive .

This one had me worried for much of the game. The Celtics were sleep walking for much of it. Not hitting shots and not giving normal effort on defense. Glad they finally woke up in the 4th. There weren't a lot of Grizzlies fans chatting in the forums for this one. Seems like most have given up on the season. I always love it when there are a lot of Celtics fans in away arenas. Funny how some fans loved the halftime show and others thought it cri...
1. Escaped the Trap Game Coming into this game, the Memphis Grizzlies had 10 players listed as OUT on the injury report and were running out guys on two-way deals and 10-day contracts against a mostly healthy Boston Celtics team only missing Nikola Vucevic. This has the recipe for a gold old fashioned Trap Game […]
As soon as he saw an opportunity to attack the offensive glass, Luka Garza battled three Memphis Grizzlies defenders to grab the rebound off Payton Pritchard’s 3-point miss, put it back up, and convert an and-one in the first quarter. Any chance to extend a possession with a second-chance opportunity, Garza was there for the […]

On a night when the Celtics shot 26% from three, they found a way to beat the Grizzlies 117-112 behind 30 points from Jaylen Brown and a season-high 22 points from Luka Garza. The Celtics started their usuals with only Nikola Vucevic missing the game. Joe Mazzulla put Derrick White, Jaylen Brown, Sam Hauser, Jayson […]
