Game Notes and More
- The Grizzlies have been one of the best teams in a loaded Western Conference so far this year. They currently sit in a three-way tie for second place after overcoming some of the most brutal injury misfortune last season and striking gold in this year’s draft with Zach Edey and Jaylen Wells.
- This does not even warrant mentioning at this point, but the Wizards have certainly not been one of the best teams by any metric whatsoever. Rumor has it the 2011 Charlotte Bobcats reunite to celebrate every Wizards loss a la the 1972 Miami Dolphins. At least the Wizards’ losing streak of 16 games came to an end yesterday!
