A big performance from Jordan Poole and some timely plays from Stephen Curry and Klay Thompson helped the Warriors defeat the Grizzlies in Game 1.
Now, the pressure is on the Grizzlies to defend their homecourt in Game 2. Otherwise, they'll find themselves in a 2-0 deficit as the series shifts to Golden State.
Ja Morant led the way for the Grizzlies in Game 1 with a near triple-double of 34 points, 10 assists and nine rebounds, but the Warriors were able to make life difficult for him, limiting him to 14-for-31 shooting from the field. Jaren Jackson Jr. gave Memphis a much-needed scoring punch with a playoff career-high 33 points on six made 3s.
The two of them will need to step up again in Game 2, and they'll need more help from the team's supporting cast, to tie the series up at 1-1.
Here's everything you need to know ahead of Game 2 between Memphis and Golden State.
