The Dallas Mavericks head to Memphis for a home-and-home against the Grizzlies, starting with a road matchup Saturday, then a game in Dallas Monday night.
The Mavs are tied with the Golden State Warriors in terms of record but sit in the sixth spot in the crowded Western Conference standings. With both teams in action tonight, this is a critical game for the Mavericks if they hope to avoid the NBA Play-In Tournament. The Grizzlies are tied with the Sacramento Kings in terms of record, but sit third in the West standings with a month to go in the regular season.
Both teams have injured superstars: Luka Doncic and Ja Morant will be missing this game and Kyrie Irving is questionable at the time of writing. Which team has the superior supporting cast?
Below I break down how I expect this game will play out, including my betting pick for Mavericks vs. Grizzlies.
