In 2020, NBA executives established the bio-secure “NBA Bubble” in Orlando, Florida, facilitating professional basketball amid the COVID-19 pandemic. During this crucial period, teams vying for playoff positions competed fiercely for the coveted seventh and eighth spots. The league was so impressed with the Bubble's success that it implemented this revamped format into the 2020-2021 NBA season. In the Western Conference, the eighth seed hinged on a decisive matchup between the Golden State Warriors and Memphis Grizzlies. On May 21, 2021, Steph Curry dazzled with 39 points in a valiant pursuit of playoff contention. Yet, despite his remarkable efforts, the Grizzlies triumphed 117-112, propelled by Ja Morant's 35 points, marking their first appearance in the playoffs in four years.
