The Grizzlies and Warriors will compete for the Summer League Championship in Las Vegas on Sunday at 8:00 pm CT, the league announced (via Twitter).
Memphis defeated Houston, 101-90, in the first semifinal matchup on Saturday to advance to the final.
Cedric Coward, a 2025 lottery pick, led the way for the Grizzlies with 28 points, six rebounds and five assists in 28 minutes. Two-way guards Javon Small (17 points, seven rebounds six assists in 33 minutes) and Jahmai Mashack (15 points, four rebounds in 16 minutes) had big games as well.
Cameron Boozer, the third overall pick in last month’s draft, recorded 12 points, 12 rebounds and five assists in 31 minutes, though he shot just 3-of-13 from the field. Memphis has also been starting a pair of former first-round picks — Olivier-Maxence Prosper and Taylor Hendricks — who could be vying for a spot on the regular season roster.
Former NC State guard Quadir Copeland had a game-high 24 points (on 9-of-13 shooting) in 27 minutes for the Rockets. Copeland, who went undrafted in June, signed a two-way contract with Houston earlier this month.
Golden State survived a close game (92-88) against the Lakers to earn a rematch against Memphis in Sunday’s final. The Grizzlies beat the Warriors by 21 points on Tuesday to hand the Dubs their lone loss in Las Vegas.
Graham Ike (16 points, 11 rebounds in 26 minutes), two-way guard LJ Cryer (16 points, four assists, in 29 minutes), No. 11 overall pick Yaxel Lendeborg (15 points, four rebounds, three assists, two blocks, one steal in 29 minutes), and Chance McMillian (14 points without missing a shot in 12 minutes) were among the top performers in a balanced effort from the Warriors.
Ike, who spent the past three seasons playing a leading role for Gonzaga, is expected to sign an Exhibit 10 deal with Golden State. McMillian spent 2025/26 — his first professional season — with the G League’s Santa Cruz Warriors after signing an Exhibit 10 deal with Golden State last fall.
Los Angeles, which was 4-0 entering Saturday, was led by 2025 second-rounder Adou Thiero. The high-flying forward had 16 points (on 6-of-6 shooting), 10 rebounds, three assists and three steals in 26 minutes. Thiero, 22, converted a spectacular alley-oop in the fourth quarter (Twitter video link).
