Every now and then hoop fans are surprised by some key event in the 2021-22 season, but it seems like the entire Thunder vs Grizzlies showdown has been one of the most one-sided games ever witnessed in modern-day basketball as the home team won the game by more than 70-points. With 9 Memphis players scoring in double digits, they seemed to be absolutely unstoppable on the scoring end, while the latter majorly struggled.

The Thunder vs Grizzlies game was led by Jaren Jackson Jr, who scored more than 26 points in just over 20 minutes. Moreover, with the team being without marquee scorer JA Morant, it is highly commendable to witness them register a 73-point thumping over the away team. With the Memphis scoring more than 100 points and 6 players scoring in double digits, the humiliation seems to be beyond description for the Oklahoma City Thunder.
