Game one of the Golden State Warriors’ second-round playoff series against the Memphis Grizzlies was a roller coaster. Back and forth lead changes, ejections, clutch 3-pointers, and missed free throws set the stage for a thriller in game one between the Grizzlies and Warriors.
Starting in the second quarter, Draymond Green exited the contest after receiving a flagrant two and being ejected on a questionable foul call. Along with Green’s ejection, the Warriors had to weather the storm from Ja Morant and Jaren Jackson Jr.
The Memphis duo combined for 67 points, including 10 made 3-pointers. Despite a red-hot Morant and Jackson Jr., the Grizzlies still couldn’t answer the Warriors. Down one of their All-Stars in a hostile environment, the Warriors showed the experience of three-time champions.
