NBA roundup: Warriors fall to the Grizzlies while losing their cool
The Golden State Warriors not only lost to the Memphis Grizzlies, they lost their cool in the closing minute.
Stephen Curry and Kevin Durant both were ejected with 43 seconds left Saturday night, a fitting end to a frustrating night for Warriors in a 111-101 loss to Memphis.
“My pockets will be a lot lighter for sure,” Curry said about the ejection after thinking he was fouled and throwing his mouthpiece. Durant may draw additional penalties after he appeared to make an obscene gesture to the Memphis crowd.
Marc Gasol had 34 points and 14 rebounds, and the Grizzlies built a 19-point third-quarter lead over Golden State before holding on for the win. James Ennis III added 13 points, and Tyreke Evans had 12 as Memphis shot 47 percent compared to 39 percent for Golden State. The Warriors shot 12 of 38 from 3-point range.
Curry led the Warriors with 37 points, and Durant added 29 and 13 rebounds.
