The Grizzlies struggled to get anything going against Oklahoma City's stingy defense. Star point guard Ja Morant had 17 points on 6-of-17 shooting. Marvin Bagley added 17 points off the bench on 8-of-8 shooting, the team's lone bright spot.

The Oklahoma City Thunder bottled up Ja Morant and the Memphis Grizzlies in the NBA playoff opener Sunday. The scary part? OKC rolled even when Shai Gilgeous-Alexander was on the bench.

In what turned into a nightmare outing, the Grizzlies were overwhelmed from start to finish, struggling against one of the NBA’s best defensive units. On the other end, Memphis failed to contain OKC’s balanced offensive attack, resulting in a stunning 131-80 loss.
