The first full day of NBA action will feature a cross-conference matchup between the Pacers and the Grizzlies.
Last season these teams met twice, once at each teams home court. The Pacers swept the season series, winning both games by a combined seven points. Memphis will be looking to avoid a third straight loss to Indiana, but will have to do so on the road.
Memphis Grizzlies
The Grizzlies finished last season with an abysmal record of 22-60. They finished 5th in their division and 14th in the Western Conference. It will hard to do much worse than they did last year, so it seems things can only get better for the Grizzlies.

The Grizzlies were the 4th overall pick in the 2018 NBA Draft and with their first pick they selected Jaren Jackson Jr. Jackson is a 6-11 Power Forward out of Michigan State University and will be the building block towards the Grizzlies rebuild.

Part of the reason the Grizzlies were so poor last season was because they did not have a player who averaged more than 16 points per game. Tyreke Evans was the leading scorer with 15.6 points per game. Nowadays teams need a prolific scorer to be competitive and the Grizzlies just do not have this.
They will hope some of their draft picks will develop into this type of player so they can focus on getting back into the playoffs in the coming years.
Indiana Pacers
The Pacers finished 5th in the Eastern Conference and had a 48-34 record overall. They faced off with the Cleveland Cavaliers in the first round and ended up losing in game 7.
Pacers guard, Victor Oladipo made a huge leap last year and led the team with 23.1 points per game. He will be looking to improve on that number again and has a great opportunity to start the season off strong in this home game.

The Pacers selected Aaron Holiday in the 2018 NBA Draft with the 23rd overall pick. Holiday is a point guard out UCLA and has the potential to be a pure scorer for the Pacers.
A potential duo of Oladipo and Holiday could be very dangerous in the years to come.
