In the NBA regular season, the Mavericks lost to the Grizzlies 96-102.
After the game, Clay accepted an interview with reporters. Talking about the difference between the current Grizzlies and the previous Grizzlies, he said: "I really respect the past Grizzlies, such as Mike Conley, Zach Randolph and Marc Gasol. But I really don't know much about this new team. They always talk more and do less. Talking without practice is useless. I respect players who can prove themselves with practical actions. After all, empty talk is useless. I know this better than anyone. After all, I have been working hard in the league for a long time."
