The Los Angeles Lakers (44-29) visit the Memphis Grizzlies (44-29) on Saturday, March 29, 2025, at the FedEx Forum.
The Grizzlies had the lion's share of last night's headlines, having fired head coach Taylor Jenkins. It's a surprise, given that the team is currently sitting 5th in a stacked Western Conference.
Still, the Grizzlies have lost four of their last five games. During that span, they failed to reach 105 points three times. With their offense struggling, the Grizzlies recently lost by 24 points to the Oklahoma City Thunder, potentially prompting the Jenkins ouster.
On the other end, the Lakers aren't doing so well, either. They've also lost four of their last five games, having been defeated by the Chicago Bulls twice. The Lakers' defense has been a problem in their current skid. In the last five games, their defensive rating dropped from 114.5 to 128.2.
This season though, the Lakers have had the upper hand against the Grizzlies, leading the season series by 2-1. It has been a high-scoring affair when these two teams battle, combining for an average total of 240.7. With Grizzlies star Ja Morant probably returning from an injury, we could see the two teams running up the score again.
