Ja Morant’s 24-point effort led the Grizzlies in their 126-109 win over the Magic on Sunday in London.
What we know about Sunday’s games:
The Magic and Grizzlies tipped off at the O2 Arena in London on Sunday, with Memphis earning the victory, 126-109. Ja Morant offered up a game-high 24 points and 13 assists in his return to action after missing the last six games with a calf contusion.
Despite the absence of Nikola Jokić, the Nuggets are finding their groove and are winners of four straight. Jamal Murray has been a catalyst for the recent success, averaging 33 points and 9.3 assists during their win streak. Tonight, they’ll host the Hornets at 8 ET, who will be wrapping up a five-game road trip.
Speaking of four-game win streaks, the Kings are surging and just got Domantas Sabonis back after a two-month absence from a partial meniscus tear. They’ll have an opportunity to win their fifth straight tonight when they host the Trail Blazers, who may remain without Deni Avdija (back).

Fast start in Houston
The Rockets aren’t making things easy for the Pelicans early. They’ve jumped out to a 17-6 lead and turned defense into offense early.
Alperen Sengun gets the deflection, Steven Adams gets the loose ball, and Amen Thompson gets the finish on the other end.
