That is not a typo.
The Memphis Grizzlies took down the Oklahoma City Thunder 152-79. That’s a margin of 73 — SEVENTY. THREE!!! — points, breaking an NBA record.
Yep. Wild.
It’s the result that stunned the NBA, despite the fact that the Grizzlies — who were missing Ja Morant — are a good team and the Thunder — who were missing Shai Gilgeous-Alexander — are not. And yes, we know OKC is trying to rebuild slowly with some young players, but … man. Yikes.
So let’s dive into the stats from the record-breaking defeat, which go beyond something like “WAIT WHAT? How much did the Thunder lose by???”
