Cameron Boozer records the first triple-double of his NBA career with 18 points, 12 rebounds and 12 assists as the Memphis Grizzlies defeat the Portland Trail Blazers 124-103. The win keeps Memphis undefeated at 5-0 after the game in Portland.
Several outlets highlight Boozer’s unusual speed to reach the milestone, noting it comes in his fifth NBA game, and in coverage that also describes him as one of the youngest to post a triple-double. The Grizzlies spread scoring, with multiple players reaching double figures, while Portland’s offense is led by Deni Avdija, according to some reports.
A key subplot across the coverage is Ja Morant’s return to Portland: outlets frame the matchup as a reunion with his former team. Differences are mainly in emphasis—some lead on Boozer’s rookie feat, others frame the game as a contest between unbeaten teams and Morant’s matchup history—while the core result and key stat line remain consistent.
