Latest news and updates about the Grizzlies
I apologize first of all to you, reader, to have to strengthen your mental fortitude to have the mental capacity to withstand the horrors you will certainly witness tonight. These teams have no business facing each other in a late April matchup — they’d probably prefer a 50-point blowout loss against the top teams in […]

The Cleveland Cavaliers took care of business as they dispatched the Memphis Grizzlies 142-126. This felt like a preseason game. The Cavs chose to give nearly all of their regular rotation players who played the night before against the Indiana Pacers the night off. They were without Donovan Mitchell, James Harden, Thomas Bryant, and Max […]
The Cleveland Cavaliers have won three straight games. All grades are based on our usual expectations for each player. NOTE: I retroactively took half a grade away from everyone tonight for the three-point defense. That’s what happens when your opponent matches the NBA record for threes made. Jarrett Allen 13 points, 9 rebounds, 1 assist, […]
Evan Mobley scored 24 points, Sam Merrill added 21, and the Cleveland Cavaliers pulled away from the Memphis Grizzlies 142-126 for their 50th win of the season. Jarrett Allen returned to the starting lineup after resting Sunday night against Indiana, scoring 13 points and blocking two shots. The Cavs’ bench did their part too, with […]
A shorthanded Cleveland Cavaliers beat the Memphis Grizzlies on the second night of a back-to-back. Let’s go over today’s winners and losers. WINNER – Keon Ellis This was a fantastic 48 hours for Keon Ellis. He started the week by nailing 3-of-7 three-point attempts in Cleveland’s win over the Pacers. Then, he followed it up […]
For the second straight day, a skeleton-crew version of the Cleveland Cavaliers is taking on a more skeleton crew version of the Memphis Grizzlies. Cleveland will be without Donovan Mitchell, James Harden, and Max Strus. They will, however, have Sam Merrill, Jarrett Allen, and Evan Mobley. Share your thoughts as the game unfolds. If you […]
The Cleveland Cavaliers will look to pick up their second win in as many nights as they take on the Memphis Grizzlies on the tail end of a back-to-back. Like Sunday evening, the Cavs are resting several players with the playoffs fast approaching and their position mostly locked up. The Cavaliers are coming into this […]
It got interesting at times, but the Milwaukee Bucks mostly dominated the tanktastic Memphis Grizzlies, 131-115. As Deolu put it in his rapid recap, this was the Bucks’ their first win against Memphis since January 2022, which is crazy to think about. Read our full summary of the game here and catch a six-minute audio […]
Former Portland Trail Blazers and current Memphis Grizzlies wing Rayan Rupert got a triple double with 33 points, 10 boards, 10 dimes, and 4 steals as the Grizzlies lost to the Milwaukee Bucks earlier today 131-115. In a “I really hope we didn’t screw this one up” moment for Portland, Rupert – who was waived […]
The Bucks closed out their two-game home stretch on Easter with a 131-115 win over the Memphis Grizzlies to improve to 31-47. Ryan Rollins, returning from a hip strain, contributed 24 points to the Bucks’ victory, while Rayan Rupert led the Grizzlies with 33. NBA.com Box Score Game Recap The Grizzlies, missing an alarming number […]
Los Angeles Lakers star LeBron James made headlines for signaling out Memphis and Milwaukee as places he doesn’t enjoy playing when he was on a golf YouTube video with Bob Does Sports. Those comments — particularly saying he doesn’t enjoy playing in Memphis — made people angry. “A random f***** Tuesday in Milwaukee,” James said […]
Unlike the last two games, today’s game against the Memphis Grizzlies offers the Milwaukee Bucks another test of their tanking mettle (metal?). Memphis took the first game back in December. Where We’re At Pretty slow week for the Bucks, all things considered. Three games of basketball that shook out as expected, with a win against […]
There are a lot of different types of must-win games. Playoff games. Rivalries. Tie-breakers. Ring nights. Banner nights. Revenge games. But then there’s a must-win in the sense that your opponent is 25-51 on the season, actively tanking, and comprised of guys who may not even be in the league next year. Tonight was the […]
Last night in Houston, the Knicks (49*-28) lost their third straight game, all on the road. It was possibly the least entertaining game we’ve watched all season, and New York played out of sync all night. Tonight, in the second of a back-to-back, they had a prime opportunity to regain their confidence against a Grizzlies […]
Memphis Grizzlies forward Brandon Clarke was arrested at 1:03 p.m. PT on Wednesday, April 1, and booked in Cross County, Arkansas, according to The Commercial Appeal’s Damichael Cole and Lucas Finton. He was held on a Civil Investigative Demand with the Cross County Sheriff’s Department, but has since been released and bonded out of jail. […]
The Knicks (48*-28) visit the Memphis Grizzlies (25-50) tonight at FedExForum. New York hopes to end a three-game road slide and protect their third seed in the East. Meanwhile, the Grizz struggle to field a team with all the injuries they have suffered this season. As lopsided battles go, this one couldn’t be more so. […]
Tonight, the Knicks (48*-28) visit the Memphis Grizzlies (25-50) at FedExForum. New York sits third in the Eastern Conference and has already clinched a playoff berth, but the Cavs are nipping at New York’s heels, so every win matters as the Knicks try to solidify their positioning. Memphis, meanwhile, owns one of the worst records […]
If the Knicks don’t fix their excrement, New York is about to become first-round fodder. Adding insult to injury, the loss to Houston came on the first game of a back-to-back affair that has the Grizzlies on the schedule today. Imagine losing another one to the Teddy Bears. Sheesh… Mike Brown On starting games slowly: […]
The Nets “rested” Ziaire Williams vs the Sacramento Kings Sunday. It was well-deserved after what has become a breakout month of March in which he’s put up the kind of numbers the Grizzlies hoped for when they took him with the 10th pick in the 2021 NBA Draft and when the Nets traded for him […]
Sorry for the miss on the Game Thread last night, y’all. We had a miscommunication on the game coverage sheet, and I was working one of my other jobs last night, so I couldn’t just jump in. Anyway, enough apologies, on to the game. The Houston Rockets got a win last night, dowing the Memphis […]
I hate to be the “I told you so” guy (he said, lying), but this was my last line for the Minnesota preview. It all adds up to a crushing loss to an undermanned team on national television tonight. It’s the death knell for this iteration of the Houston Rockets. Again, that was before Houston […]
Coming off a dominant win against the Miami Heat, the Spurs traveled to the FedEx Forum to take on the Memphis Grizzlies for the final time this season. De’Aaron Fox and Luke Kornet did not play due to their respective injuries, and the Grizzlies had eight players ruled out. As a result, Dylan Harper started […]
Out of all of the San Antonio Spurs’ blowout victories over the last month, Wednesday’s 123-98 win over the Memphis Grizzlies felt different. It wasn’t too long ago when the Spurs were on the other end of games like this – playing multiple players on 10-day contracts and two-ways. Those were brutal, demoralizing losses that […]
