Jalen Green had been struggling with his shot in recent games, but he bounced back in a big way against the Grizzlies, making 13 of his 26 shots. His performance drew praise from coach Ime Udoka.

“I showed him some shots that he may have passed up when they’re going under sometimes, and tonight he took all those,” Udoka said. “And so make or miss, which he missed some early, he stayed aggressive and kept shooting and that’s what Memphis gives up. And he took advantage of that.”
