For the first time since the 2016-17 season, the Memphis Grizzlies are in the postseason thanks to their 117-112 overtime win over the Golden State Warriors in the Western Conference play-in tournament on Friday.
The Grizzlies earned a date with the Warriors thanks to their victory over the San Antonio Spurs two days earlier. They will look to keep their positive momentum going with a first-round matchup against the top-seeded Utah Jazz.
Golden State had a two-day turnaround after Wednesday's heartbreaking loss to the Los Angeles Lakers. The Warriors did have the benefit of playing this game at the Chase Center, but they were unable to hold serve on their home court.
