\"Utah Jazz 109, \"Memphis Grizzlies 100:<\/strong> Box Score<\/a> | Game Detail<\/a><\/p>\n

SALT LAKE CITY \u2013 <\/strong>Darryn Peterson posted a 25-point, 12-assist double-double, and Cody Williams added 18 points with eight boards, as the Utah Jazz defeated the Memphis Grizzlies, 109-100<\/a>, in the Salt Lake City Summer League<\/a> on Monday night.<\/p>\n

This was a tight game from start to finish and the Jazz couldn\u2019t create any separation until the latter stages. But in the end, the strong play of the Peterson-Williams backcourt was enough to lift Utah to victory.<\/p>\n

The Jazz had a sizable edge in bench points (40-19) and points in the paint (44-38), while the Grizzlies\u2019 biggest issue was failing to take advantage of Utah\u2019s turnovers, scoring just 15 points on 13 turnovers.<\/p>\n

The biggest story of the game was the matchup between the second- and third-overall picks of the 2026 NBA Draft<\/a>, with Peterson (No. 2)<\/a> playing for Utah and Cameron Boozer (No. 3)<\/a> suiting up for the Grizzlies.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n

Darryn Peterson dazzles with 25 points and 12 assists in a Summer League win vs. the Memphis Grizzlies.<\/p>\n

The Jazz jumped to a 24-23 lead after the first quarter, and the close margin persisted in the second (29-29) and third (24-23), leaving Utah holding a meager two-point lead with 10 minutes left.<\/p>\n

The Jazz pulled away for good in the fourth, outscoring the Grizzlies 32-25 and cruising to victory in a game where their backcourt tandem turned heads.<\/p>\n

Peterson, the former Kansas standout, continues to leave a good impression in the early stages of Summer League play with a team-high 25 points, while Blake Hinson finished with 15 points.<\/p>\n

Seven Utah players scored in double digits, and center Kylor Kelley exited the game with an injury and didn\u2019t return. The Jazz shot an impressive 51.4% from the field and 39.4% from 3-point range.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n

Cameron Boozer finishes with 18 points in a Summer League game vs. the Utah Jazz.<\/p>\n

Cedric Coward<\/a> led the way for the Grizzlies with a 23-point performance, though he shot just 9-for-21 from the field. Boozer finished with 18 points, seven rebounds and four assists.<\/p>\n

Olivier-Maxence Prosper (16 points) and Javon Small (14 points, six assists) also scored in double digits for a Memphis team that shot 42% from the floor and 33.3% from 3-point range.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"The Jazz defeated the Grizzlies, 109-100. \u2022\u00a0Download the NBA App\u2022\u00a02026 Summer League Jazz 109, Grizzlies 100: Box Score…\n","protected":false},"author":3,"featured_media":917819,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":"","_share_on_mastodon":"0"},"categories":[40],"tags":[10005,10607,1260,370670,62,67,132,68],"class_list":["post-917818","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-nba","tag-grizzlies","tag-jazz","tag-nba","tag-salt-lake-city-summer-league","tag-sports","tag-united-states","tag-unitedstates","tag-us"],"share_on_mastodon":{"url":"https:\/\/pubeurope.com\/@us\/116876769228722491","error":""},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/917818","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/3"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=917818"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/917818\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/917819"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=917818"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=917818"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=917818"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
