Jevon Carter’s Career Night

Jevon Carter had his fair share of struggles during his rookie season, but he was able to put it all together in game 82. His career night helped lead the Grizzlies to a 132-117 win over the Golden State Warriors.

His defense has been very impressive all season, but he had struggled to make shots consistently all season coming into this game. Despite all the struggles he had he was able to come in and shoot the ball with confidence.

Throughout the season he only shot 30% from the field and 33% from three-point range, but that didn’t affect him at all. He came out and put on a show in front of the home crowd to end the season.

Carter came off of the bench and played his best game of the season, finishing with 32 points, 4 rebounds, and 2 assists. He shot 10-18 from the field including 8-12 from three-point range. It was by far his best game of the season and should give him the confidence he needs heading into year two.
