LAS VEGAS — Even with top draft pick Zach Edey missing a fifth straight game with ankle soreness, the Memphis Grizzlies are one win away from playing for a Summer League title in Las Vegas.

GG Jackson posted a second straight double double when he scored 27 points and pulled down 13 rebounds as the Grizzlies improved to 3 and 0 with a hard fought 104-98 win over the Orlando Magic.

After blowing a 19 point lead and watching the Magic tie the game in the fourth quarter, the Grizzlies went on a 13-0 run keyed by Scotty Pippen Jr. Pippen scored 16 of his 25 in the final ten minutes. He also had a game high nine assists.

The Grizzlies now need a win over New Orleans on Thursday to move into one of Saturday’s semifinals and two wins away from a title.
