MEMPHIS — His confidence was high. His jumper was on and Jae Crowder made the Memphis Grizzlies pay for sagging off of him at times.
Crowder made the nets in FedExForum play sweet music Friday leading the Jazz to their 10th consecutive road victory, 95-78.
He finished with a game-high 22 points off the bench in 33 minutes as the Jazz also collected their fifth straight win overall. Crowder’s six 3-pointers made were a career-best as well as his 11 3-point shot attempts.
Thursday’s practice at Rhodes College gave him an indication that the Grizzlies would be in for a tough night if they didn’t take him seriously.
