# Ty Jerome's 45-point night

Sports · Heat 3.5 / 10 · 4 shows · 24m airtime

Ty Jerome scored 45 points on 17-of-25 shooting for the Memphis Grizzlies on October 21, 2026, including 10 points in 4:37 before he was subbed out. The discussion has widened from the timing of that substitution to his season start: he leads the NBA at 34.7 points per game, up from 19.7 last season, Memphis is 4-0 and he was named player of the week. The latest turn is team context, with Memphis leading the league in offensive rebound percentage and second in second-chance points. The pull while he was hot remains the specific point of dispute.
