Tuomas Iisalo said Scotty Pippen Jr. is likely day-to-day or week-to-week depending on how he progresses. Sounds like he avoided a long-term injury. Positive news for Memphis
Cool stat via @GrizzliesPR: Cameron Boozer is the first teenager in NBA history to start all of his first five career games and win them all (he now has started six and won six)
Not going to win them all. I had a feeling this one would be a lot tougher than it looked on paper but you gotta love the fight & that remarkable comeback late in the fourth & Ty Jerome continues to show that when he gets on one he’s one of the most potent buckets in the league. On to the next! #Grizz
At the end of the day we’re in year 1 of a rebuild, and outlasted every other NBA team on earth in our undefeated streak
A lot of positives to take away, but now it’s time to bounce back
Cam Boozer on the adjustments the Grizzlies can make coming out of the game against the Pelicans after showing fight to rally and force overtime.

isaiah stewart is what we thought marcus smart would be.
first guy since tony allen that i feel like has brought an edge and culture to this team while embracing this city.
you can tell he feels at home.
Cam Spencer encouraged to keep shooting heavily while facilitating as the Grizzlies balance his shooting and playmaking.
Tuomas Iisalo: “He's one of the best shooters in the world and we encourage him to take as many shots as possible. And that's really what opens up other opportunities. … he played with a little bit different lineup composition with different type of guys. And there it also changes. There's a different type of balance with the units. And I thought he brought a lot of spacing. He, like you said, 13 assists and zero turnovers, played with a lot of poise, and made sure everybody was involved.”

Tuomas Iisalo said Memphis needed to win the fans over after a 25-57 finish last season. So far, the Grizzlies appear to be doing just that.
- A complete vibe flip from one year ago
- Balancing success with staying hungry
“We haven’t done anything.”
