The Memphis Grizzlies clobbered the Brooklyn Nets by 39 points on Wednesday night in Barclays Center, as they bested the likely seventh-seed in the Eastern Conference by a final score of 118-79.

Late in the game, as the deep benchwarmers lit it up for Memphis, the team produced a noteworthy celebration by imitating a famous Nets sideline celebration that went viral.

As you can see, the Grizzlies seem to be on cloud nine in this one, as Ja Morant, Kyle Anderson, De’Anthony Melton and Josh Jackson all get in on the action and look to be having the time of their lives. Morant and Anderson, in particular, yuck it up after the jaunty little dance.

Why wouldn’t the Grizzlies want to celebrate? As it stands, they are the eighth-seed in the Western Conference, and each player on the team’s roster played at least five minutes in the game and registered at least an on/off rating of +7.
