Memphis Grizzlies guard Desmond Bane handles the ball against San Antonio Spurs forward Keita Bates-Diop in the first half of an NBA basketball game, Monday, Jan. 9, 2023, in Memphis, Tenn. – Tyus Jones, filling in for Ja Morant, had 24 points, Jaren Jackson Jr. added 16 and the Memphis Grizzlies withstood a second-half San Antonio rally to beat the Spurs 121-113 on Monday night.
Tre Jones led the Spurs with 18 points while Josh Richardson added 16 points. Romeo Langford and Jakob Poeltl finished with 13 points each as the Spurs lost their second straight and fifth in the last six. After the game was tied at 109 near the midway point of the fourth, Memphis clicked off an 11-2 rally to create enough of a buffer for its seventh straight win.
Grizzlies forward Danny Green, who played eight seasons with the Spurs, has not seen action this season as he recovers from left knee surgery after an injury suffered in last season's playoffs. Asked what he remembered about Green's time with the Spurs, coach Gregg Popovich replied: “He played more then, that's for sure.” Then he added that Green was the"consummate pro."
