Memphis Grizzlies – Statistics & current form

The Tennessee basketball team have been able to rely heavily on Ja Morant in their two meetings with San Antonio this season. This year’s All-Star debutant scored 30 points in the first duel in early January and as many as 41 points less than four weeks later.

In both cases, the guard had the best output of all players on the court. Head coach Taylor Jenkins’ team will also rely on the home bonus: The Grizzlies have won two-thirds of their 30 home games to date.

San Antonio Spurs – Statistics & current form

The hoopsters from the Lone Star State have had to do without Dejounte Murray of late. The point guard was officially absent against Miami because of knee trouble.

But it was probably nothing more than a precautionary measure or a hidden breather for this year’s All-Star debutant, as he is currently no longer on the Spurs’ injured list.

For Head Coach Gregg Popovich’s team, his emergence would be extremely important, as the 25-year-old has risen to become the lynchpin of San Antonio’s game this season. Reigning MVP Nikola Jokic of the Nuggets alone tops his NBA haul of a dozen triple-doubles already!
