While the first two games of the series included ejections, drama and late-game heroics, Game 3 was different due to the Golden State Warriors running away with a blowout win over the Memphis Grizzlies on Saturday night.
A third-quarter run set the Warriors up with a 21-point advantage heading into the final quarter. A flurry of late daggers from Jordan Poole helped the Warriors take a 2-1 lead in the series after a 142-112 win in Game 3.
Poole dropped 27 points off the bench on 11-of-17 shooting from the floor. Along with drilling three 3-pointers on five attempts from deep, the third-year guard added four rebounds and two assists in 31 minutes. Poole finished the contest with a game-best +33.
