Send him back to the Warriors and let him do his thing over there." That's a dangerous proposition in a deep Western Conference. With Klay Thompson, Draymond Green and Otto Porter Jr. resting and Steph Curry out with a sprained foot ligament, the Grizzlies steamrolled the Warriors 123-95 at FedExForum.

These two squads were in a neck-and-neck battle for the 2nd seed in the Western Conference just weeks ago, before Steph Curry suffered an injury a few weeks ago ...

- Steven Adams (B): Steven Adams excelled in his role of crashing the glass, setting hard screens, and anchoring the defense. - Ziaire Williams (C+): Ziaire Williams wasn’t much of a perimeter factor in this game, making only 1 of his 4 three-pointers. - Brandon Clarke (C): Brandon Clarke returned from injury tonight, and he struggled with his offense because of the Warriors physicality. He’s up for the challenge, and you could see the growth in his game over time this season. Last night was a good example of his expanding role within the offense. He did find a way to get to the free throw line, shooting a nice 6-9 from the charity stripe. He chirped a bit with Grizzlies archenemies Andre Iguodala, and he taunted the Warriors a bit to rile the crowd up. That area of his game is going to be important going into the postseason with Ja Morant back in the fold. The biggest thing in his game is how he’s assumed the role as the go-to guy when Ja Morant is off the floor. However, his scoring and his energy were instrumental in the team’s win last night. Not only was Curry out for the Warriors, but they sat Draymond Green and Klay Thompson on the 2nd night of a back-to-back. And the Grizzlies provided a good amount of offensive pop while doing it.

However, the Grizzlies have experienced tremendous growth in the past couple of seasons, and they look to be on the verge of passing Golden State as Western Conference contenders. Dillon Brooks and De’Anthony Melton chipped in with 21 points apiece as the Grizzlies overwhelmed the Dubs from the jump. The Grizzlies acquired Iguodala from the Golden State Warriors in June 2019. Grizzlies fans let their feelings be known when Iguodala checked into the game late in the first quarter. With a core of Morant, Jaren Jackson Jr., and Dillon Brooks, the Grizzlies appeared to have a young and exciting group capable of leading the franchise to greener pastures. In the summer of 2019, the Memphis Grizzlies took their first step toward building a contender when they drafted Ja Morant No. 2 overall in the NBA draft.

Grizzlies Player Comments On The Andre Iguodala Hate In Memphis (The Cold Wire)

Some people might not remember but Andre Iguodala played for the Memphis Grizzlies a couple of seasons ago. Well, he didn't exactly play for them.

He went on: “We kept building and building. More guys got on the train and we were able to create something like this and keep building this dynasty and program up to new heights.” "We kept building and building …more guys got on the train & we were able to create something like this and keep building this dynasty & program up to new heights."

Top Takeaways from Warriors vs. Grizzlies with Stephen Curry, Ja ... (Bleacher Report)

The Memphis Grizzlies moved to 18-2 without Ja Morant on Monday night. The second-place team in the Western Conference easily beat the short-handed Golden ...

Without Morant, Bane could take over as the top point producer. He hit the 20-point mark in three of those contests. Memphis' victory essentially locked it into the No. 2 seed. The Grizzlies need to continue to build up their chemistry and confidence without Morant over the next six games in case their star player is not ready to go for the start of the postseason. The Grizzlies will not be able to win a title without Morant, but they could win a first-round series with Bane, Brooks and others in starring roles while Morant gets healthier. Klay Thompson and Draymond Green did not play for the Warriors. Golden State is gearing up for a six-game stretch that starts at home on Wednesday against Phoenix Suns in which it will try to hold on to the No. 3 seed in the Western Conference.
