The NBA season is upon us. Two days into the action, Ohio State's members of the Association have fared decently well out of the gate. Let's take a look at how Buckeyes in the NBA have performed.

Conley drops 24 to lead Grizzlies over Timberwolves

In a tough opening night match up against the young and improving Minnesota Timberwolves, the man with the NBA's richest contract helped his Memphis Grizzlies overcome a slow start to come away with a 102-98 victory. Conley was Memphis' top performer on the night, finishing with 24 points and four assists. The former Buckeye shot 8-of-14 from the floor, including 4-of-5 both from three and at the free-throw line.

Russell's 20 points pushes Lakers past Rockets

Opening its first season without Kobe Bryant since I was two years old, the Los Angeles Lakers would've made the Mamba proud in a 120-114 win over the Houston Rockets. The new-look Lakers, who featured new starters in Loul Deng and Timofey Mozgov (both former Cavs, fwiw), rode the trio of D'Angelo Russell, Jordan Clarkson and Julius Randle, who combined to score 63 points on Wednesday. Russell had an impressive showing, going for 20 points and three assists to open up the season.

The Best of the Rest

Kosta Kofous and the Sacramento Kings took down the Phoenix Suns 113-94 on Wednesday. Kofous, who got the start at power forward, finished with two points and four rebounds on the night.

On Tuesday, Evan Turner and the Portland Trail Blazers opened up the season on a high note, taking down the Utah Jazz 113-104. While Turner was outshined by Damian Lillard, who put up 39 points in the win, the former Buckeye was solid off the bench, finishing with three points, five rebounds and five assists.
