Thunder mount killer comeback to take 3-0 lead in Memphis

OKC 114 MEM 108

After letting Memphis, the league's 6th-best offense this season, spring for 77 first half points, the Oklahoma City Thunder (up 3-0 in the series) held the Grizzlies to 31 total second-half points in a game- and (likely) series-deciding comeback. The continued heroics of Alex Caruso will be overshadowed by the bummer injury that Ja Morant suffered in a slip-and-hard-foul collision with Lu Dort.

Morant left the game on crutches and didn't play in the second half, and his teammates were not able to keep the momentum going without him to say the least. The Thunder's 29-point comeback is good for second in NBA postseason history, and best all-time for OKC. If you're gonna try and break all the records for the franchise, I guess it doesn't hurt to get this particular one out of the way in Round 1.

Next up: Game 4 on Saturday, the Thunder's chance to close out the series in Memphis.
