The Memphis Grizzlies dominated the Sacramento Kings 137–96 on November 20 at FedExForum, delivering a comprehensive defensive performance that exposed Sacramento's offensive limitations. Shai Aldama led Memphis with 29 points, while JaJuan Landale added 21 points off the bench as the Grizzlies shot 50.5 percent from the field and made 17 three-pointers. Sacramento's Zach LaVine paced the Kings with 26 points, but the team managed only 46.3 percent shooting and committed 16 turnovers against Memphis's stingy defense. The Grizzlies' defensive rating of 97.4 points per 100 possessions proved suffocating, while their offensive rating of 128.7 reflected their balanced attack: 42 assists and 49 rebounds demonstrated Memphis's ball movement and rebounding control. Sacramento's second half collapse was evident in the quarter-by-quarter splits, with the Kings scoring just 49 points combined in the third and fourth quarters. The 41-point margin underscored Memphis's superiority in both execution and effort, marking a statement win that reinforces the Grizzlies' playoff credentials while raising questions about Sacramento's defensive identity heading forward.
