The Memphis Grizzlies have been saddled with the dubious distinction of being the first team eliminated from the 2024-25 NBA playoffs. After earning their way in through the Play-In Tournament, they suffered a four-game sweep at the hands of the top-seeded Oklahoma City Thunder.

The Oklahoma City Thunder swept the Memphis Grizzlies in the first round of their Western Conference Playoffs matchup, but Ja Morant believes it might have gone down differently had he not exited Game 3—and then missed Game 4—with a left hip contusion.

Scotty Pippen Jr. learned that the hard way in the fourth quarter when he attempted to cut off OKC's All-Star forward on a fastbreak. Williams brushed the undersized defender off with ease, sending him flying, before he stopped on a dime for a 3-pointer that found the bottom of the net.
