Is the Underdog Grizzlies’ Grit the Secret Weapon to NBA Glory?
If you look at the three times the Grizzlies were eliminated from the playoffs with this core, 3-point shooting was a problem in each series. Memphis shot 32.9% on 3s while losing to Utah Jazz in 2020-21, 34.2% on 3s while losing to the Warriors in 2021-22 and 31.2% on 3s while losing to the Lakers in 2022-23.
With a step forward from Jackson Jr., a career-best shooting year from Santi Aldama and a passable shooter at small forward in rookie Jaylen Wells, the Grizzlies are better equipped from the outside than ever.
