The Memphis Grizzlies recently changed their head coach without warning, having suffered four consecutive losses. However, in the game on the 4th, they defeated the Miami Heat 110-108, thanks to Ja Morant's 30 points and a game-winning shot at the buzzer, ending their losing streak and giving new head coach Tuomas Iisalo his first victory in the NBA. After the game, Iisalo stated that this victory was significant for the team, especially highlighting the key performance of star player Morant.

Recently, the Memphis Grizzlies, who suddenly changed their head coach and faced a four-game losing streak, today (4th) won against the Miami Heat, thanks to their star player Ja Morant scoring 30 points throughout the game and making a turning jump shot from 12 feet for the winning basket just before the end. This victory, with a final score of 110 to 108, ended their losing streak. This win was also the first victory for the new head coach Tuomas Iisalo in the NBA. After the game, Iisalo expressed his happiness at achieving his first win in such a special way.

Taylor Jenkins, who coached the Grizzlies for six seasons and recorded 250 victories, was recently replaced unexpectedly. As the coach with the most wins in the team's history, General Manager Zach Kleiman later explained that this decision was unrelated to the players and reiterated that it was made in the best interest of the team. The coaching position was subsequently handed over to Iisalo, the best coach of the 2024 European Championship.

Although Iisalo faced three consecutive losses at the beginning of his tenure, he finally celebrated his first win in the NBA today, and it was a particularly special victory that ended with a buzzer-beater. Iisalo stated after the game, "This victory is very important for our team because our players really worked hard. Before the game, I told the players that everyone was giving their all hoping to win, and the feeling of winning is great, especially since the defense was intense for both sides in the second half. We ultimately won thanks to Ja's buzzer-beater."

When asked if there was any special way to celebrate, Iisalo casually replied, "I think the players were probably concerned about my injury still being in recovery, so I started celebrating quite calmly." Finally, when mentioning Morant's game-winning shot, Iisalo admitted he was very happy to have a superstar like Morant on the team, "That's why we gave him the opportunity for the final shot. With him, we have confidence, and he successfully made the shot. I'm very happy to have a player like him."
