Jordan Poole dropped 27 points as the Golden State Warriors go 2-1 up in the series against the Grizzlies.
The Golden State Warriors won game 3 of their ongoing series against the Memphis Grizzlies in a comprehensive manner. They blew out the Grizzlies by 30 points and won the game by a score of 142-112.
Jordan Poole dropped 27 points, as he continued to shine in the first playoffs of his career. Poole was once again instrumental in the Warriors’ win, as he stepped up alongside Steph and Klay.
Steph Curry also had a great game and scored 30 points, while Klay Thompson had a great bounce back as he scored 20 points.
This was a big win for the Warriors after they had an off night in shooting the ball in game 2. However, they are once again in the driving seat to win the series and progress to the Western Conference Finals.
Ja Morant once again had a stellar game as he scored 34 points, but he wasn’t able to help his team win the game. Unfortunately, he injured his knee also in the process.
The extent of the injury is still unknown, but there is optimism around the camp that Ja will be ready to go in the next game. The Grizzlies need to win the next game to even up the series, or else the Warriors will remain in the driving seat and would be likely to win the series in 5 or 6 games.
