Memphis: news and form
Memphis rebounded well Thursday by winning against the Pelicans (132-111). In the game before, the Grizzlies conceded a relatively surprising defeat against the Houston Rockets, one of the weakest teams in the league (123-112). Despite this, they remained planted in second place in the Western Conference, just behind the Suns. Their presence in the play-offs is no longer in doubt when it was far from certain at the start of the exercise. But this young team impresses in every encounter with a fiery attack. With three next affordable games against the Knicks, Thunder and Pacers, they should rack up some wins.
Grizzlies: players to watch
The Grizzlies will have the chance to have an almost complete workforce for the meeting since only Dillon Brooks should miss the call. Once again, all eyes will be on Ja Morant for this encounter. In just two seasons, he has established himself as one of the best point guards in the league. With his very athletic style of play made of posters and monstrous blocks, he carries his team. He still scored 24 points in the victory of his team against the Pelicans. With 22 units each in the last game, Jaren Jackson Jr and Desmond Bane will also be poisons for the opposing defense.
In a very poor match, the Knicks overcame the Dallas Mavericks on Thursday (77-107). Despite a Luka Doncic still in good shape (31 points) the New York collective made the difference with six players at more than 10 points. The Manhattan franchise has thus chained a third success in a row, something it had not done since mid-January. After a loss of a short head against the Suns (115-114), she had caught up by beating the Clippers (93-116) then the Kings (115-131). With a twelfth place in the Eastern Conference, qualifying for the play-off seems difficult to obtain. But there is still time to join the play-in.
Knicks: players to watch
This return to form is largely due to the performances of Julius Randle. The young player had established himself as the leader of this team last season but is struggling to continue in this new exercise. Against the Kings, he put on a hell of a performance, finishing with 46 points and 10 rebounds. He also had a big game against the Mavericks with a record of 26 units, 8 rebounds and 5 assists. For this game against the Grizzlies, the defense will have to be assured. Mitchell Robinson should therefore have an important role to play.

We think the Grizzlies are going to end the Knicks’ good streak. They will play at home and will want to continue after their success against the Pelicans. They’re under pressure from Golden State and need to win to stay in the game. They will be favorites on Friday night.

Julius Randle’s form will be key to the Knicks’ ability to hold out in this game. But the New York player is in great shape. Although we don’t think that will be enough to win his team, he could reach the 30-point mark again.
