The Memphis Grizzlies' postseason run concluded with a 4-0 sweep by the Oklahoma City Thunder in the first round of the 2025 NBA Playoffs. Despite the early exit, Grizzlies star Ja Morant remained defiant during his exit interview, suggesting that the series outcome could have been different had he not suffered a hip injury in Game 3.

According to Ja Morant, the Memphis Grizzlies ' fate was sealed when Lu Dort collided with him mid-air before Game 3 went into halftime. A nasty spill on the hardwood ruled him out for the final one-and-a-half games of a four-game sweep by the Oklahoma City Thunder.

The Oklahoma City Thunder fought back from a 29-point deficit in the second quarter to earn a 114-108 win over the Memphis Grizzlies in Game 3 and open up a 3-0 lead in their first-round series.
