Game of the Week:
Golden State Warriors vs. Memphis Grizzlies on Christmas Day (2:25)

The Dubs ran away with this one by a final score of 123-109 behind 32 pts from (the Third Splash Bro?) Jordan Poole. I break down Poole’s unique offensive playing style, Ja’s electric finishing ability, and Memphis’ defensive woes.

Player of the Week:
Paolo Banchero, Orlando Magic (11:00)
