Santi Aldama led the Grizzlies with a career-high 29 points in a commanding 140-112 win over the Spurs on Friday night.
Desmond Bane contributed 22 points and 14 assists, while Memphis dominated the second half, outscoring San Antonio 156-100 across the two-game series.
Ja Morant missed the game due to a sore right foot, making him ineligible for major NBA awards this season as he cannot meet the 65-game threshold.
