Memphis Grizzlies vs Golden State Warriors Game Player Stats and Box Scores for March 20, 2024

The Memphis Grizzlies are in the Bay Area to take on the Golden State Warriors on Wednesday. Although the Grizzlies are decimated by injuries, they’ve been competitive against their hosts this season. An improbable win by Memphis in the matchup will give it the season series 2-1.

Jonathan Kuminga and Steph Curry had hot starts, but the Grizzlies kept it close. GG Jackson, who usually plays well against the Dubs, had another impressive opening, leading Memphis with 12 points. Golden State led 33-32 after 12 minutes passed.

Santi Aldama was the biggest story of the night in the first half. The Memphis Grizzlies forward, who averages 10.7 PPG, erupted for 15 second-quarter points. He went 6-for-9 from deep to keep the injury-hampered Grizzlies firmly within the game.

The Golden State Warriors' late flurry to end the second frame gave them a 68-58 lead to end a fiesty first half.

A 12-2 run, behind Steph Curry's six points, broke the game open in the third quarter. The Dubs put on an offensive clinic to blow the game wide open. Golden State held a 108-90 lead with 12 minutes left to play.

The Memphis Grizzlies put up a better fight in the final frame but the damage had been done. Timely baskets from Klay Thompson, Trayce Jackson-Davis and Chris Paul kept the Grizzlies at bay. The flurry that started near the end of the second quarter until the third period was all the separation the Golden State Warriors needed.

GG Jackson, Jaren Jackson Jr. and Santi Aldama did all they could but it proved to be insufficient. The Grizzlies might have stayed close if Desmond Bane wasn't misfiring almost all game long.

Golden State emptied the bench but still cruised to a 137-116 win over the visitors.
