Clayton is playing a Memphis kind of Tune so far. Houston QB had several errant throws early, capped off by a terrible INT on 3rd down that Tigers DB Quindell Johnson pounced on. Memphis in business again, up 7-0 already. – 8:04 PM

First Memphis TD on an opening drive since the Navy game. Really important response by the Tigers’ offense after the past 2 performances. Season-best 14 plays, 78 yards. – 7:53 PM
Geoff Calkins @geoff_calkins
That’s as impressive a drive as Memphis has put together this year. Thomas runs it in. 7-zip 🐅 – 7:51 PM

Heat wheel of lineups stops tonight on: Gabe Vincent, Duncan Robinson, Marcus Garrett, Haywood Highsmith, Orlando Robinson. It is Vincent’s preseason debut, after dealing with knee issue. Only other available Heat players: Days, Jovic, Bouyea, Cain, Smith (and maybe Haslem). – 7:47 PM

Jamal Cain and Nikola Jovic will again have an opportunity to flash their skills tonight in Memphis. A look back at last night in Brooklyn, when their potential and youth were on display miamiherald.com/sports/nba/mia… – 7:35 PM
Brady Hawk @BradyHawk305
I’d like to see Miami put the ball in Jovic’s hands a bit more to run sets tonight
Dude is such a gifted passer
Want to see him get more reps on-ball – 7:32 PM

Even though Gabe Vincent will play tonight, I have a feeling they start Marcus Garrett as well to guard Ja Morant early on – 6:55 PM

Memphis OL Jonah Gambill is out here ahead of the rest of the OL testing his undisclosed injury. Memphis could use him. He missed last week’s game vs. Temple. Tigers face Houston in about an hour. pic.twitter.com/1XScAHyBKy – 6:27 PM

Drew Hill @DrewHill_DM
Usual starters tonight. But the Grizzlies are gonna mix up the bench to see some different looks tonight. Xavier Tillman and Roddy will get minutes. – 6:17 PM

In his absence, a beat down by the Heat, Kyrie Irving said the Nets looked flat… – 4:44 PM
Drew Hill @DrewHill_DM
Dillon Brooks has faith that whatever changes the Grizzlies make this season will work.
He also “loves” the new rookies. Here’s why: dailymemphian.com/section/sports… – 3:01 PM
