Memphis Grizzlies face early setbacks under Tuomas Iisalo
The Memphis Grizzlies, led by head coach Tuomas Iisalo, have experienced a turbulent start to their NBA season. After achieving a franchise-record six consecutive victories, the team has recently suffered two consecutive losses against the New Orleans Pelicans and the Indiana Pacers.
In their recent 107-103 loss to the Pacers, the Grizzlies struggled with ball security, committing 20 turnovers that resulted in 24 points for Indiana. Players noted that the high-tempo style of play sought by Iisalo occasionally leads to rushed decisions. Additionally, the team faced challenges with shooting accuracy, recording a 27.3 percent success rate from the three-point line.
Despite these setbacks, players such as Olivier-Maxence Prosper and Cam Boozer expressed confidence in the team's mindset, stating they intend to correct these issues as they continue their rebuilding phase.
