It's not often a first-round pick changes teams during his rookie season, but the Grizzlies landed a good one when they acquired 19th overall selection Walter Clayton Jr. from Utah at the trade deadline. He made his impact felt right out of the gate, scoring his first career basket as a Grizzlie on this play. With Memphis trailing early in Portland, Clayton Jr. catches a crisp feed from Cam Spencer and immediately puts his head down to attack the rim. He slices through the defense with a quick first step, absorbs contact in the paint, and floats in a smooth lefty layup to cut into the Trail Blazers' lead. · Feb 7, 2026
