Best Game: 1/06- Golden State Warriors

You can argue that Conley’s best game occured when he dropped a career high 38 points.

That’s too easy.

In early January, Conley displayed every bit of his clutch-gene in the Grizzlies 24-point comeback win vs. Steph Curry and the Golden State Warriors.

Conley finished the game with 27 points and 12 assists.

If you wondered why the Memphis Grizzlies made it a priority to sign Mike Conley back, this game was the icing on the cake. And to put it into a different perspective, he was still supposed to be sidelined at this point. He broke his back against the Hornets a month earlier.

Was anyone complaining about his contract this night?
