The Grizzlies have found good form and have begun to improve their position in the standings. Taylor Jenkins' men have won three games in a row, beating Philadelphia (117:111), Chicago (142:131) and Portland (123:98). This allowed the team to rise to fifth place in the Western Conference.
The return of Ja Morant has added dynamics and aggression to the attack. The team is confident on the home court and is determined to extend the winning streak. Memphis is demonstrating excellent team play, which makes it the favorite in the upcoming meeting.

Gregory Jackson and Vince Williams will not play in the next game due to health issues.
Interesting facts for betting
The Grizzlies have lost only once in their last five home games.
Probable lineup: Jackson - Wells, Clarke - Morant, Bane.
Current form
The Pistons continue to struggle for consistency, but so far they have found it difficult to achieve results. After three consecutive losses, the team still managed to win against Toronto (102:100), although the outcome of the game was decided in the final seconds.
The club occupies the bottom lines of the Eastern Conference and is clearly inferior in terms of roster depth. Head coach J.B.

Detroit will face a serious challenge in the upcoming match, and they will have to make every effort to put up a worthy resistance to Memphis.
