On this week’s episode of the Next Gen Podcast, Bryson and Alex break down all aspects of the Grizzlies’ first playoff game. Starting with how the Grizzlies can better defend the Lakers’ role players. They also discuss the Ja Morant injury and how long he could be out.
Next, they look ahead to game 2 to discuss what the Grizzlies can do better. They also discuss how Tyus Jones can run the Grizzlies’ offense if Morant is out. Who else will have to step up in his place?
Finally, we discuss Jaren Jackson Jr., winning defensive player of the Year, and how he is on a historic pace on the defensive end. Has Jaren reached the level where he will be in the running every season?
