Memphis defeated Brooklyn 103–98 on January 11 at FedExForum, holding the Nets to a sluggish offensive performance despite their 18 three-pointers made. C. Coward led the Grizzlies with 21 points, followed by J. Landale's 16, while N. Clowney and T. Martin each scored 17 for the Nets. Memphis dominated the glass with 54 rebounds to Brooklyn's 43 and controlled the tempo through a strong first quarter (34 points) that set the tone early. The Grizzlies shot 42 percent from the field and made 11 threes, holding Brooklyn to 40.9 percent shooting and forcing 10 turnovers. Brooklyn's ball security proved costly—despite 10 steals, the Nets couldn't overcome a third-quarter collapse where they managed just 24 points. The combined 201 points fell well short of the 220.5 Vegas total, reflecting a defensive-minded affair. Memphis's defensive rating of 106.5 versus Brooklyn's 109.7 offensive rating underscored the home team's ability to clamp down in crucial stretches. The victory solidifies Memphis's position in the Western Conference standings as the Grizzlies continue building momentum.
