The Memphis Grizzlies are at a crossroads. They have to make some big moves this offseason and it’s going to make things very uncomfortable. The core of Jaren Jackson Jr., Desmond Bane and Ja Morant was supposed to be the next generation that produced for the Grizzlies in the post-Grit and Grind era.

It is hard for many teams to recover from a 51-point loss, especially when it comes in Game 1 of a grueling seven-game series against the best team in the NBA.

The Oklahoma City Thunder shocked the NBA world in their 114-108 Game 3 win over the Memphis Grizzlies on Thursday. The 29-point comeback put them up 3-0 in the Round 1 playoff series. Shai Gilgeous-Alexander had 31 points and eight assists. Jalen Williams scored an efficient 26 points and Chet Holmgren tallied 24 points.
