Memphis has exceeded fans' expectations at the start of the current season. The team from Tennessee is showing excellent results and is rightfully among the leaders of the championship. With such a game, they will finally be able to get into the playoffs. Golden State is not particularly shining and is repeating all the failures of last season. The Grizzlies are playing great on their home court (their win rate is 80 percent). This is a great moment to improve their standing in the tournament against a not very formidable opponent. Jenkins' team will have to achieve victory with the noisy support of their fans.
