Both teams played Saturday with LA losing to the Pelicans 128-115 while the Grizzlies lost to the Cavaliers 112-107.
Last season, the teams split their four game series and each have a win on the other this year. The Lakers hold the all-time record having bested the Grizzlies in 54 of their 87 matches.
Los Angeles Lakers
LeBron James returned from the break stating he was ready to kick into a different gear in order to accomplish the goal of getting his Lakers to the postseason.
Week 19 of gameplay offered mixed results in terms of those desires. The initial match featured a victory as LA erased a 19 point deficit versus the Rockets.
The elation of that win was short lived with the loss in New Orleans. James was booed throughout the entire game by Pelicans fans who loudly voiced their disapproval for his role in the Anthony Davis drama, who coincidentally didn’t play.

Brandon Ingram appears to have seized the role as the secondary star to James. He registered a double-double of 27 points and 11 rebounds versus the Rockets. In New Orleans, he played under 26 minutes but claimed a team-high 29 points along with three assists, five rebounds and hit 3 of 4 triples.
LeBron was extremely vocal post game citing a lack of preparation and effort from his teammates. How this message is interpreted may dictate the potential of this cast ever ascending the ladder this season.

Defense is the biggest issue as the Lakers who rank 12th on the season have dramatically regressed producing the 28th ranked February defense. In particular, LA seems to be missing Lonzo Ball’s defense to stop opposing guards as well as his playmaking.
Ball is expected out until early March while Mike Muscala (ankle) has missed the last three games but is probable for Monday.
Memphis Grizzlies
Unlike the Lakers, the Grizzlies won’t be vying for a playoff seed. With the announcement rookie, Jaren Jackson has a deep thigh bruise and will miss significant time it seems the Grizz have pushed in all their cards to go full on tank mode.
Jonas Valanciunas produced a double-double of 25 points and 11 rebounds in the loss to Cleveland.

Free Los Angeles Lakers vs. Memphis Grizzlies NBA Prediction:
With the Grizzlies intent on tanking and LeBron intent on erasing the 3.5 games his Lakers trail the eighth-seeded Clippers the automatic presumption is a Lakers win.
4* Free NBA Betting Pick: Bet the under
The problem with that interpretation is a long dislike between these two teams and most Lakers opponents bring their “A” games to the court. Regardless of who wins if the Grizzlies stick to their defensive system and keep the pace slow the game should fall well short of the 221.5 projected point total.
