The Grizzlies are coming into this game playing very well right now and they are currently one of the best teams in the Western Conference. They have won 3 straight games, all of them by double digits, and they have barely lost any games over their last 10 winning most of them by double digits as well. The Pistons have been awful this season, they are one of the worst teams in the Eastern Conference and the NBA and they have only won 1 of their last 10 games. These teams have been trending in opposite directions all season and Ja Morant is on a mission to get his team to the playoffs. The Grizzlies have been smashing teams that are much better than the Pistons by 20 or more recently and there is no reason why this game would be any different.
