The 49-point victory is the largest in the history of the 26-year-old Grizzlies.
The previous record was set by Memphis basketball players in 2003-2004. season, when then-New Jersey Nets basketball players were crushed by 47 points.
Jonas Valančiūnas, who was able to relax and watch the wonderful performance of his fellow countrymen, hardly needed to achieve an impressive victory for the “grizzly”.
The Lithuanian scored 6 points (3/6 doubles) in 12.5 minutes, bounced 6 balls, made two errors and committed five infractions.
JV was the only player on the team to keep the “grizzly” behind the opponents. It is true that the difference was only 1 point in favor of the “missiles”.
Even without John’s greatest contribution, the Grizzlies simply fought opponents in almost every game.
The Rockets only survived the first half, with the Memphis guests winning 25:18, but already in the second quarter the difference between the teams reached 26 points (63:37), and after a long break, the advantage of The Grizzlies turned obscene – 88:50.
Already after three halves, Memphis led by 35 points, which was also a record advantage for the Grizzlies at this stage of the game.
In the fourth half, Memfio’s reserve players only increased their team’s lead, which eventually reached almost fifty.
Only the Grizzlies’ reserve players scored as much as 85 points in this game, more than the entire rival team. This is the highest number of points scored by Grizzlies basketball players. Up to five of them scored a two-digit number of points.
For the Rockets, it was the 11th straight failure. The team, sinking to the bottom of the Western Conference, is now just ahead of the absolute outsiders of the Minnesota Timberwolves.
“Rockets”: John Wall (4/16 pitches) and Jae’Sean Tate after 14, Mason Jones 12, David Nwaba 11, Justin Patton 10.
“Grizzlies”: Justise’as Winslow 20, Brandonas Clarke’as 16 (7/7 dvit., 12 atk. Kam.), Desmondas Bane’as 15 (7 atk. Kam.), De’Anthony Meltonas 14, Kyle’as Andersonas (0 / 7 trit.) Ir Tyusas Jonesas po 13, Gorgui Diengas 12.
