This is one of Ayton's more aggressive games. He has 12 points and 9 rebounds thus far.

I wonder if the Grizzlies would take Johnson, Warren and the Bucks pick for Conley.

Conley will be 32 at the start of next season.

Yeah, Booker turned the ball over but he hustled back and his defensive effort forced the late shot.

Booker is a stud. He's doing more to get his teammates going by scoring like this than when he was dishing a bunch of assists. It's crazy. He's scoring within the rhythm of the game for the most part, he's not forcing things or freezing any of his teammates out. I'm so glad we have him locked in for the next 5 years.

The Grizzlies made out pretty good in that Gasol trade. Valencunias has been quite good for them.

Booker is money on his shot. The more teams concentrate on Booker his assists should come easier.

He now has 40 points and 7 assists.

Ayton was helped off the court.


Duane Rankin‏ @DuaneRankin 6m6 minutes ago

Deandre Ayton limps off court to sidelines. Looks like an ankle. I'm not sure, but he was helped off the court by two people to the locker room. #Suns down five, 86-81, late in 3rd. Bender checked in.

Left ankle sprain for Ayton. He will not be back per Lindsey Smith.

We're finally seeing what a lot of people theorized Booker & Ayton would look like offensively. Teams can't over commit to covering Booker because that will allow Ayton easy access to the rim and vice versa.

What a change since Ayton went to the locker room.

Valanciunas is abusing Bender. He is too strong for him to guard.

Booker looks tired to me. He has been the focus of the Grizzlies defense.

He needs 4 points to reach 50.
