Grizzlies Topple Pistons, 122-112
The Memphis Grizzlies defeated the Detroit Pistons, 122-112, at Little Caesars Arena on Sunday evening.

Ja Morant led the Grizzlies with a 33-point, 10-assist double-double that included five rebounds and one steal. Dillon Brooks and Jaren Jackson posted matching 22-point tallies while pulling down five and three rebounds, respectively. Brooks also dished out five assists and recorded two steals. Brandon Clarke generated a 14-point, 14-rebound double-double that included two assists. John Konchar furnished 11 points, five rebounds and four steals.

Saddiq Bey paced the Pistons with 24 points, complementing them with seven assists and six rebounds. Bojan Bogdanovic poured in 18 points. Killian Hayes supplied 13 points, six assists, two rebounds, two blocks and one steal. Jaden Ivey and Hamidou Diallo posted matching 10-point contributions, with Ivey also managing six rebounds, three assists and three steals.

The Grizzlies head home and visit the Miami Heat on Monday night, while the Pistons hit the road and tangle with the Miami Heat on Tuesday night.
