The Warriros and Grizzlies played Game 1 of their series on Sunday, and the game was an absolute thriller.
Without Draymond Green (who was ejected in the first half), the Warriors stormed back in the second half for a 117-116 win.
Ja Morant, who led all scorers with 34 points, had a chance to win the game at buzzer but missed.

The Warriors are back in the playoffs for the first time since the 2019 season when they lost to the Toronto Raptors in the NBA Finals.
Meanwhile, the Grizzlies lost in the first-round of the playoffs to the Utah Jazz in five games last year.
