The Memphis Grizzlies edged the Chicago Bulls 125–124 on March 28 at FedExForum in a defensive battle that fell just below the 247.5-point Vegas total. C. Coward led Memphis with 24 points while T. Burton added 18, but the Grizzlies' 46.7% field-goal shooting and 12 three-pointers proved sufficient despite Chicago's offensive efficiency. M. Buzelis paced the Bulls with 29 points and C. Sexton contributed 26, yet Chicago's 23 turnovers and 50% shooting from the field couldn't overcome a fourth-quarter collapse—the Bulls scored 36 in the final frame but fell one point short. Memphis dominated the glass with 37 rebounds to Chicago's 53, though the Bulls' 11 blocks and 8 steals showcased defensive intensity that nearly carried them. The Grizzlies' third-quarter explosion of 42 points proved the difference-maker, and their 17 steals highlighted suffocating perimeter pressure. This one-point loss leaves Chicago searching for consistency as the playoff race tightens.
