You can pick any play and see how much effort Luka Garza puts forth when he's on the floor. The one below exemplifies that.
After beautiful ball movement, he battles one-on-three for the offensive rebound. Then he gets it again and draws a foul on Jaren Jackson Jr. The definition of a Tommy Point.

Maybe I missed it happen on an earlier play, but it looked to me like KCP hurt his arm on that missed three. He was holding it in pain immediately after he released that shot. The Grizzlies are already without six players.
