The Golden State Warriors continued their strong start to the season on Friday night, beating the Memphis Grizzlies 123-118 to improve to 10-2, and to take over first place of West Group C in the 2024 Emirates NBA Cup in-season tournament.
It was a game that wasn’t nearly as close as the final score, but Memphis erased most of a 24-point Warriors lead once the outcome had been decided, which they were incentivized to do since the NBA Cup uses point differential as a tiebreaker. It was also a balanced game for the Dubs, with six different players scoring in double figures, and no one scoring 20 points.
