The Oklahoma City Thunder made short work of the Memphis Grizzlies, sweeping them in the first round of the Western Conference playoffs. Granted, Ja Morant missed most of Game 3 and all of Game 4 with an injury, but regardless, the Thunder were expected to blow them out.

The Memphis Grizzlies have been saddled with the dubious distinction of being the first team eliminated from the 2024-25 NBA playoffs. After earning their way in through the Play-In Tournament, they suffered a four-game sweep at the hands of the top-seeded Oklahoma City Thunder.

Scotty Pippen Jr. agrees with Ja Morant that the Grizzlies had the Thunder figured out prior to Morant's injury.
