Cameron Boozer hit a go-ahead jumper with 20 seconds left as the Memphis Grizzlies erased a 12-point deficit in the final 3:47 to beat the Golden State Warriors 111-108. Memphis seized momentum with a 17-0 run, flipping a late deficit into a dramatic road victory highlighted by Boozer’s 25 points and 13 rebounds. Stephen Curry led Golden State with 24 points while rookie Yaxel Lendeborg posted a home debut of 18 points, 13 rebounds and six assists, but the Warriors’ late scoring drought doomed them after De’Anthony Melton’s late triple put them ahead. The game featured rivalries, technicals, and standout rookies, including Boozer and Lendeborg, in a contest that underscored Memphis’s resilience and Golden State’s late-game missteps. The result sets up further early-season intrigue as both teams push toward their respective goals.
