Joe Ingles' 3-pointer clanged off the rim, and the Magic couldn't get a putback shot up. The streamers fell from the rafters at FedExForum, and the Grizzlies had won their third game in a row.

Their 107-106 win was just the fifth at home for the Grizzlies this season, one of the worst marks in the NBA. It stands in stark contrast to their road record, which has been vastly superior and has kept them from falling into the basement of the Western Conference.

It's a bizarre stat in what has been an utterly weird season for the Grizzlies. They're 13-12 on the road but 5-15 at FedExForum; it's surprising both because their road record would put them squarely in the playoff race, and because they had the league's best home record a season ago.

And no one seems to have any answers.

"We've just got to bottle up whatever we're doing on the road and try to bring it home," Grizzlies coach Taylor Jenkins said. "It's a complete 180 of what we were able to do last year. I think these guys come in with the right mentality and approach, and hopefully it clicks here sooner rather than later."

It clicked on Friday night, when Jaren Jackson Jr. scored 30 points to lead the Grizzlies to what has been a rare win at 191 Beale St.

They were 16-25 on the road last season but 35-6 at home, establishing FedExForum as a nightmare place to play for opposing teams and helping the Grizzlies to the No. 2 seed in the Western Conference.

As Jenkins said, though, this season has been a complete turnaround. Memphis won its past two and five of its past seven on the road, even as more Grizzlies players are out injured. They have been an underdog in all of those games and without Ja Morant, Desmond Bane and Marcus Smart, but the road success as been consistent throughout the season.

Things at home have been the opposite. The Grizzlies lost their first eight home games and won just in the first 12. The atmosphere was muted without Morant, which led Timberwolves star Anthony Edwards to call it "dead" after a Wolves win in November. There is a caveat, of course: Those games all took place while Morant was serving his 25-game suspension to start the season.

The Grizzlies beat a Utah Jazz team without Lauri Markkanen and a Spurs team that has been in the gutter of the Western Conference. They beat the Pacers in Morant's return to FedExForum, the night that had more energy from the fans than any other this season.

The most impressive home win was probably the Martin Luther King Jr. Day win over the Warriors, when GG Jackson and Vince Williams Jr. helped catalyze an upset win over Steph Curry and company. And then there was Friday night's win over the Magic, who are eighth in the Eastern Conference at 23-22.

Now the Grizzlies are on a three-game winning streak, during which they've seemingly unlocked an identity even as they're undermanned in almost every game. They beat the Magic by withstanding runs and getting enough defense, something they did even more emphatically in the preceding two road wins over Toronto and Miami.

"It's always good to win here," Jackson said. "I know we've had a better record on the road, so every time we come back here and we can get it done — all these games are going to mean something at this point. We're trying to crawl back, we're trying to make this push right here, which we're going to get that done. But it's going to take a lot of fight. Every game is going to be played like a playoff game."
