What to Know

The Memphis Grizzlies will take on the Denver Nuggets at 8 p.m. ET Saturday at FedExForum. Denver will be strutting in after a victory while the Grizzlies will be stumbling in from a loss.

Memphis was within striking distance but couldn’t close the gap on Thursday as they fell 110-105 to the Philadelphia 76ers. Memphis was up 37-22 at the end of the first quarter but couldn’t hold on to the lead. The top scorer for Memphis was shooting guard Desmond Bane (25 points).

Meanwhile, even if it wasn’t a dominant performance, Denver beat the Cleveland Cavaliers 115-109 on Thursday. The Nuggets’ center Nikola Jokic did his thing and dropped a triple-double on 24 points, 18 rebounds, and 13 assists. Jokic now has 22 triple-doubles this season.

Barring any buzzer beaters, the Grizzlies are expected to win a tight contest. They have failed bettors playing the spread in their past three games, so buyers beware.

Memphis is now 35-23 while Denver sits at 42-18. The Nuggets are 28-13 after wins this year, and Memphis is 11-11 after losses.
