If the Memphis Grizzlies were playing the card game of “Uno,” they pulled out their reverse card on Tuesday night against the Utah Jazz.
Four days ago, it was the Grizzlies who controlled a game for the first two quarters before faltering in the second half.
On Tuesday, Memphis flipped the script in a 140-103 win against the Jazz at the Delta Center.
The Grizzlies trailed by one at halftime. They had one lead in the first half and were down by as many as 14 points.

Real Madrid secure future of defensive revelation until 2029 with blockbuster renewal
In a surprising turn of events, it has been revealed by MARCA that Real Madrid defender Raul Asencio has already finalized a contract renewal with the club, securing his future until 2029.
His new deal includes a significant salary increase and a release clause set at €100 million, reflecting his rising importance within the squad.
Asencio signed the contract extension earlier this week on Monday, though Real Madrid have yet to make an official announcement.
Moments after Jaylin Williams blocked Keon Ellis’ floater attempt, Shai Gilgeous-Alexander found Kenrich Williams for the running dunk in transition. That was enough for Sacramento as Doug Christie yelled, ‘Uncle!’ and called a timeout to clear his bench with less than two minutes left.
The Oklahoma City Thunder cruised to a 121-105 win over the Sacramento Kings. The second half was briefly interesting but OKC held firm control to get its 60th victory.
Juggling injuries have been a theme for the Thunder this season.
MIAMI — Jimmy Butler didn’t bother to take one look back in the direction of his old bench, his old mates, or that old floor that he set afire for many a spring night.
The emotion of Tuesday night, his return to Miami after an electric and combustible five-and-a-half-year run, was more muted than overwhelming. It wasn’t even smoldering.
“It was behind me a long time ago,” Butler said. “As soon as I ended up a Golden State Warrior, everything that went on was dead.
ST.
LOUIS – It’s getting to the point of running out of superlatives
to describe the St. Louis Blues these days.
The
Blues aren’t just on a heater, they’re blow torch scorching hot,
extending their season-high seventh straight win when they blew out
the Montreal Canadiens, 6-1, on Tuesday at Enterprise Center.
Going
in, this was a matchup of the two hottest teams since the 4 Nations
Face-Off, and each team had vaulted itself into the second wild card
from each respective conference.
But
from the opening puck drop, it wasn’t even close.
Mary Fowler momentarily looks down and holds up a very neat yellow square of knitting to the camera, two wooden needles poking out either side.
The Australia international is making a scarf, having been recently taught by her Manchester City team-mate, third-choice goalkeeper Katie Startup.
“I thought, ‘This is great’, because I wanted to make my own clothes,” says Fowler, speaking to the morning after City’s 2-0 quarter-final first-leg Champions League win over Chelsea. “It’s quite addictive.
Video – Inter Milan Trio Posing In Front Of Cameras: “Ready, Set, Action”
Inter Milan stars Lautaro Martinez, Josep Martinez, and Joaquin Correa recently posed for cameras for another Team Talk episode.
Despite struggling with a muscle injury, Lautaro Martinez is still contributing to Inter’s growth off the pitch.
Indeed, El Toro has been the symbol of this Nerazzurri generation and rightfully wears the captain’s armband.
Meanwhile, Josep Martinez is still fighting for his place in Simone Inzaghi’s starting line-up.
As for Joaquin Correa, he’ll leave the San Siro in June.
There’s a lot of pre-draft chatter about the San Francisco 49ers potentially trading wide receiver Brandon Aiyuk, and it doesn’t quite make sense.
Perhaps the 49ers front office still isn’t thrilled with how Aiyuk’s contract negotiations went last offseason. It would makes sense considering he admitted to intentionally dragging the contract talks out longer than they needed to go. They nearly traded him to the Pittsburgh Steelers last offseason before eventually signing him to a four-year deal worth up to $120 million.
This offseason is a different story.
Bronny James has come a long way in just a few months. As recently as January, while he was occasionally showing some signs of promise in the G League, there were still many people who doubted he had what it took to eventually become a legitimate NBA rotation player.
But lately, he seems to be starting to prove those doubters wrong. He still has a long way to go before he proves beyond a shadow of a doubt that he belongs in the NBA, but last Thursday, he dropped 17 points on 7-of-10 shooting for the Los Angeles Lakers.
Diggs returns to the AFC East and figures to make an impact with the young Patriots’ quarterback.
