The Memphis Grizzlies defeated the Dallas Mavericks 102–96 on November 22 at the American Airlines Center, with Santi Aldama leading Memphis with 20 points and Cam Spencer adding 17 in a road victory built on rebounding dominance and third-quarter execution. Memphis controlled the glass with 61 rebounds to Dallas's 41 and distributed the ball effectively with 26 assists while holding the Mavericks to just 19. The Grizzlies' third quarter proved decisive, outscoring Dallas 33–26 in that frame to seize control; they shot 40.2 percent overall compared to Dallas's 38.5 percent, though both teams struggled from three-point range with Memphis making eight and Dallas 12. Klay Thompson paced the Mavericks with 22 points and B. Williams contributed 18, but Dallas's defensive rating of 111.4 proved costly in a low-scoring affair where Memphis's 111.4 offensive rating established the difference. The loss marks another step backward for Dallas's playoff positioning, while Memphis's balanced attack and rebounding edge signal continued competitiveness in the West.
