What happened: Cameron Boozer hit the game-winning shot against Golden State and finished 6-of-13 from the floor, going 4-of-7 from three-point range and 9-of-9 at the free-throw line. The rookie forward also recorded two steals as Memphis closed out the victory.

Why it matters: At 19 years and 97 days old, the same Cameron Boozer who scored 24 points to send Memphis to the Summer League semifinals in July now sits third on the NBA's all-time age list for a 25-point, 10-rebound, 5-assist stat line. His combination of glass work, perimeter shooting, and late-clock creation gives the Grizzlies an immediate closing option in the frontcourt early in the 2026-27 regular season.

By the numbers: 19 years, 97 days: Boozer's age on Friday, trailing only Cooper Flagg and LeBron James as the youngest players in NBA history with at least 25 points, 10 rebounds, and 5 assists in a game. 100%: Boozer's mark at the free-throw line (9-for-9) alongside 57.1% shooting (4-for-7) from beyond the arc.

What to watch: Memphis continues its opening-week slate of the 2026-27 regular season with Boozer holding a central role in the crunch-time rotation.
