The Memphis Grizzlies capitalized on the Spurs’ absences to pull out a 89-74 win. How did each Grizzly perform in this game?

89. 211. 74. 29. Final

Last night, the Spurs were without MVP candidate Kawhi Leonard and veteran leader Pau Gasol.

In similar circumstances, the Memphis Grizzlies tend to falter. Role players would go off. Grizzly players would play lackadaisical, because their opposition is missing a key player.

Not this time.

Behind superb defense, they held the Spurs to a season-low 74 points, their lowest scoring total since 2011.

The Grizzlies are now a sizzling 8-2 now versus the Warriors, Cavaliers, Spurs and Rockets, something that no other team in the league could boast about.

How did each player fare in this contest?
