The goal proved enough to secure all three points for Spurs in a tightly contested encounter.
Richarlison, who provided the assist for Gray’s winner, thought he had doubled Tottenham’s lead on two occasions, but both efforts were ruled out for offside.
Crystal Palace threatened through Jean-Philippe Mateta and Justin Devenny, yet neither could convert their chances.
The win lifts Tottenham to 11th place in the league table. Palace, meanwhile, suffered their third consecutive defeat and slipped to ninth position.
