Cam Boozer once again played a major role, anchoring Memphis on both ends of the floor while helping spark the decisive third-quarter surge. The Grizzlies' offense clicked throughout the night, sharing the basketball, knocking down perimeter shots and forcing the Warriors into difficult possessions. Memphis finished with another balanced scoring effort, receiving key contributions throughout the rotation while continuing to build chemistry with its young roster. Defensively, the Grizzlies limited Golden State to just 13 third-quarter points, effectively putting the game out of reach before closing it out with a strong fourth quarter. The win keeps Memphis in the hunt as Summer League play continues with one preliminary game remaining.

This was the dunk of the game from Javon Small.
