Tyus Jones being a pest defensively but then runs into the courtside scorer’s table with an audible thud, but he’s able to get up looking unscathed. – 9:16 PM

All of a sudden, Desmond Bane has 20 points. Grizzlies down by nine.

Jordan Poole not happy with no foul call at the end of the 3rd quarter. – 8:56 PM
Damichael Cole
@DamichaelC
The Wizards are taking the kind of shots that usually lead to comebacks or at least the threat of them, but you gotta question if Memphis can handle the scoring part to do that. Doesn’t look like it right now. – 8:54 PM
Josh Robbins
@JoshuaBRobbins
On two recent Wizards possessions, Jordan Poole sank a 3-pointer from 32 feet, then missed a 3-pointer from 33 feet. – 8:53 PM

The Wizards’ franchise record for three-pointers made in a game is 20, set twice, both times during the 2019-20 season. With 8:23 remaining in the third quarter tonight, the Wizards are 14 of 33 from three-point range. – 8:41 PM
Josh Robbins
@JoshuaBRobbins
Daniel Gafford, who appeared to hurt his left ankle late in the second quarter, has opened the third quarter in the game. So it looks like the Wizards dodged an injury there. – 8:32 PM
Chase Hughes
@ChaseHughesNBCS
The Wizards made 12 threes in the 1st half against Memphis (12-29, 41.4%). They averaged 11.3 threes per game last year and only twice made 12+ threes in a single half. – 8:25 PM
Damichael Cole
@DamichaelC
Kyle Kuzma is shooting 3-12. Jordan Poole is shooting 3-10.
The Wizards are leading the Grizzlies 62-46 at halftime.
Yep.

Josh Robbins
@JoshuaBRobbins
At halftime, the Wizards lead the Grizzlies 62-46. That was an impressive half for Washington. OK, Memphis is not a particularly talented offensive team without Ja Morant, but even with that in mind, Washington limited the number of easy attempts. – 8:16 PM
Ava Wallace
@avarwallace
Pretty fun half from the Wizards, who lead the Grizzlies 62-46. They’ve got 12 three’s, five of which are from Kispert. Good effort on defense (muuuch better than the season opener, at least, but that’s a low bar) – 8:16 PM
Chris Vernon
@ChrisVernonShow
Corey Kispert?! – 8:16 PM
Damichael Cole
@DamichaelC
This one is looking ugly. Grizzlies down 19 and Corey Kispert has 22 points. Memphis looks a step or two or three slower than Washington – 8:13 PM

@NeilDalal96
Even Corey Kispert heat-checks are going in right now – 8:12 PM

Daniel Gafford just went down with an ankle injury. Something to watch for as Celtics face Wizards on Monday – 8:04 PM
Josh Robbins
@JoshuaBRobbins
Daniel Gafford is going to the locker room after he landed (perhaps on an opponent’s foot) and clutched his left ankle. – 8:04 PM
Neil Dalal
@NeilDalal96
Daniel Gafford appears to have turned his left ankle landing on a Grizzlies foot, in visible pain as he goes straight to the locker room – 8:03 PM
Ava Wallace
@avarwallace
Daniel Gafford is limping to the locker room with 4:28 left in the second quarter. Can’t quite tell, but it looked like he landed on someone’s foot. – 8:03 PM
Drew Hill
@DrewHill_DM
Grizzlies down double digits in the first half at Washington. Looking a step slow on the second night of a back-to-back. – 8:00 PM
Neil Dalal
@NeilDalal96
Deni Avdija walks into a 3 from the right wing that barely moves the net.
Follows it up by taking a loose ball the other way and finishing through contact by putting his shoulder down – 7:56 PM
Josh Robbins
@JoshuaBRobbins
Deni Avdija just hit a 3, and while it’s still too early in the season to know for certain, he does appear more comfortable with those attempts. On the ensuing Washington possession, he finished a transition layup through contact. Both results are good signs for his growth. – 7:56 PM
Josh Robbins
@JoshuaBRobbins
The Wizards’ team record for 3-point attempts in a game is 50, set last season on March 31, 2023, at Orlando. With 8:29 remaining in tonight’s second quarter, the Wizards are 7 for 19 from beyond the arc. – 7:53 PM
Chase Hughes
@ChaseHughesNBCS
Corey Kispert is getting crispy early: 11 pts on 3-4 3PT in 10 min. He has done a nice job circling the perimeter to find open space on the wings. – 7:51 PM
Damichael Cole
@DamichaelC
David Roddy and Jake LaRavia looking better today so far – 7:51 PM
Damichael Cole
@DamichaelC
Derrick Rose looks sped up right now. He talked yesterday about learning when to play fast and slow down within this offense. – 7:50 PM
Josh Robbins
@JoshuaBRobbins
One of the Wizards’ goals this season is to launch more 3s. In the first quarter, they went 6 for 17 from beyond the arc. At least some of those attempts have to do with Jaren Jackson Jr.’s shot-blocking threat, but, wow, 17 attempts in a quarter is a LOT of 3PAs for the Wizards. – 7:45 PM
Josh Robbins
@JoshuaBRobbins
At the end of the first quarter, the Wizards lead the Grizzlies 25-22. Washington’s offensive rating so far tonight: 99.2/per 100 possessions. Washington’s defensive rating: 85.0. – 7:43 PM

@JoshuaBRobbins
This has been a strong defensive first quarter for the Wizards. They’ve been much better so far than their season opener on Wednesday. They haven’t allowed many easy points, perhaps only the Xavier Tillman 3-pointer from the left corner that gave Memphis a 12-11 lead. – 7:35 PM
Josh Robbins

Bilal Coulibaly is checking in with 3:49 remaining in the first quarter for his regular-season home debut. – 7:32 PM

After starting the season 0-8 from 3, Jordan Poole knocks one down from deep to get Capital One Arena loud – 7:31 PM
Josh Robbins
@JoshuaBRobbins
Corey Kispert was the Wizards’ first player off the bench tonight, replacing Kyle Kuzma. It’ll be interesting to see if Wes Unseld Jr. staggers his three veteran starters — Kuz, Jordan Poole and Tyus Jones — to make sure two of them are on the court at most times. – 7:28 PM
Neil Dalal
@NeilDalal96
8 of the Wizards first 11 shots from 3s, getting decent looks but not knocking them down yet. – 7:25 PM

Matt Ryan picking up some floor burns for a loose ball, beating about three Knicks to it. Crowd gave him a nice ovation when he checked in based on his Memphis performance – 7:25 PM

The Wizards are generating some pretty good looks at the basket, but they’re just missing. They’re 2 of 14 from the field, including 2 of 9 from three-point range. – 7:24 PM
Drew Hill
@DrewHill_DM
Ziaire Williams is off to a nice start tonight. He’s getting open looks, moving his feet defensively and battling for rebounds. – 7:23 PM

Memphis DE Jaylon Allen had been very quiet this season but he’s been great today. That was a LOUD strip sack to course-correct the momentum against North Texas. – 5:37 PM

Game #2 notes:
– Rebounding battle/JV vs. Mitchell Robinson. New Orleans out-rebounded Memphis 52-37.
– Math game. Pelicans took 32 3s in opener. Knicks took 44 3s last night.

The Wizards’ keys tonight against Memphis:
+ Play with more effort defensively, especially at the point of attack. Communicate.
+ Stop watching when a teammate shoots. Get back. Don’t hesitate.
+ Be physical, especially on the boards.
+ Move the ball, and do so through passes. – 2:13 PM

The biggest theme for the Grizzlies so far? Injuries and searching for the right rotation combinations. Look a little deeper, and you’ll notice the two players who are arguably impacted the most.
Derrick Rose and Marcus Smart are learning on the fly.
