Morant scores 26 to lead Grizzlies past Nuggets. MORE:
MEMPHIS, Tenn. — Ja Morant had 26 points, eight assists and seven rebounds,added 17 points and the Memphis Grizzlies defeated the Denver Nuggets 106-97 on Monday night.
Jones and Tillman were part of a Grizzlies bench that outscored Nuggets reserves 43-34 and kept Memphis in front most of the way. Denver never led by more than two points, and there were six ties. Jokic characterized Jones’ 3-point shooting as “a game-changer” in bolstering the Grizzlies' second unit. But he also noted that Memphis outscored the Nuggets in the paint 58-40, some of that from Morant’s zigzagging, stop-and-start moves to the basket.
In the fourth quarter, Jenkins played both Jones and Morant for much of the period, providing the Grizzlies with more stability to hold off Denver.
