Watch: Hawks' Caris LeVert stuns Grizzlies with game-winner

LeVert scored the final seven points of the game, including the game-winning basket as time expired. He had 16 of his 25 points in the final nine minutes of the game, including 14 of the Hawks' final 16 points in the 132-130 win.

He's averaging 17.8 points since coming over to the Hawks in the trade that sent De'Andre Hunter to the Cleveland Cavaliers, up from 10.2 points per game in Cleveland. On a night where Trae Young shot 5-for-17, albeit with 15 assists, the Hawks needed every one of LeVert's points.

It was another last-second loss for the Grizzlies, who have dropped to fourth place in the Western Conference. Saturday, De'Aaron Fox's jumper with two seconds left gave the San Antonio Spurs a 130-128 win.

Friday, it was OG Anunoby hitting a three-pointer with five seconds left as the New York Knicks beat the Grizzlies, 114-113.

Of course, these things even out over the course of a season. Or a few days, since the Grizzlies took down the Phoenix Suns, 151-148, on Wednesday, thanks to Ja Morant's own last-minute heroics.

But it's a sign that Memphis isn't putting teams away. It let the Spurs and Hawks, both with losing records, hang around. The Grizzlies' last six games have been determined by a total of 15 points, and they're 2-4. In their last 10 games, their only two wins are against the reeling Suns.

The reason is that the Grizzlies can't get stops at the end of games. Or at the beginning of games, or in the middle of games. For the last 10 games, they've given up 125.6 points per game, the worst mark in the NBA over that stretch. It's hard to prevent game-winners when a team is allowing opponents to shoot over 50%, like Memphis has recently.

LeVert was huge Monday night. But he got some help from a Grizzlies defense that's falling apart at the worst time.
