Memphis kept pace with volume perimeter shooting, going 29-of-59 from three-point range, and moved the ball well with 32 assists. Prosper Olivier-Maxence led the Grizzlies with 24 points, while A. Bal added 20, helping Memphis stay within striking distance despite Cleveland’s advantage in overall shot quality and rebounding. Cleveland’s balanced scoring proved difficult to contain. Evan Mobley scored 24 points, Dennis Schroder added 22, and Sam Merrill chipped in 21 as the Cavaliers repeatedly answered Memphis runs.

Going forward, the game reinforced Cleveland’s ability to win with pace, ball movement, and high-percentage offense when multiple contributors are producing. For Memphis, the three-point output and assist total were positives, but the Grizzlies will need more resistance at the rim and improved rebounding to avoid being outscored by efficiency and extra possessions against top offenses.
