Spurs claw out road win over Grizzlies, 94-85.

Ja Morant tried his hardest, going for 26 points & 7 assists (10-19 FG), with Jarren Jackson, Jr. scoring 15 points & 14 rebounds, but the Memphis Grizzlies went cold late against the Spurs.

For the Spurs, a 24-17 4th Quarter yield was enough to pull out the victory, led by Brandon Ingram's 23 points & 7 rebounds. Dejounte Murray had 17 points. Andre Drummond was a force for 19 rebounds, but shot poorly on a 2-11 night. Kent Bazemore & P.J. Tucker combined for 25 points. Fred VanVleet had a sharp 11 assists.
