Despite not making a three-pointer in the first quarter, the Kings’ offense was solid as they had a success rate of 52% shooting from the floor. They also were able to limit the Grizzlies to 39% shooting which gave the purple and black a 25-22 lead after one. But once the second quarter was in play, everything changed. MarShon Brooks was hot for Memphis as he scored eight points in the period, and as a result, the Grizzlies took a 48-44 lead going into halftime.
Once the second half started, the Kings found their rhythm. The team collectively started to make their threes while limiting the Grizzlies to score just 15 points in the third.
