Wednesday, February 2nd the Memphis Grizzlies and New York Knicks play for the first of two meetings this season and will wrap up the series in Memphis on March 11th.
Both teams last played on Monday with the Grizzles falling 119-122 in overtime to the Sixers while the Knicks routed the Kings 116-96.
In history, the teams have played 48 times with each side winning 24 times. Last season the teams played twice with the Knicks taking both contests.
Memphis Grizzlies
The Cinderella team of the season is undoubtedly the Grizzlies who continue to defy the odds and have put themselves into the conversation as a potential dark horse to win the title.
Ja Morant will start in the All-Star Game while Desmond Bane was selected to participate in the Rising Stars Challenge. Jaren Jackson Jr. also has an outside chance to make the team if coaches select him to the reserve group.
Much of the Grizzlies’ success ties back to their effort and athleticism. Case in point, they lead the league in total rebounds (48.3), as well as offensive rebounds (13.5) plus are first in blocks (6.5) and steals (10.2).
They are one of five teams who rank in the top 10 of offense and defense (Suns, Warriors, Bucks, Heat) which adds fodder to the belief in Memphis being among those squads with the best title shot.
Steven Adams (ankle) is questionable for Wednesday. Dillon Brooks (ankle) remains out healing from a bad ankle sprain with no update on his return date.
New York Knicks
It’s interesting that the Knicks made the move to add Cam Reddish but haven’t exactly given him much run since doing so. Initially, he was out due to an ankle sprain but in the five games he’s been available, Reddish has been used sparingly.
In two of the five games, he was a CD DNP (Coach’s Decision – Did not play). In the other three games, he played a bit over five minutes against the Clippers and Sacramento and 10:07 in the blowout loss to the Heat.
With Derrick Rose expected back soon he’ll likely take even more minutes away from the time the youngster is getting. All this begs the question — are there more moves coming?
Or did the front office not discuss this addition with head coach Tom Thibodeau who isn’t exactly jumping at the chance to see what the Knicks have in Reddish.
Meanwhile, the Knicks have won twice in the last eight games and will enter the trade deadline likely looking to make moves in order to return to the playoffs — although it’s likely that would be via the play-in tournament at this point with them sitting 11th.
Derrick Rose (ankle) is the only player out for the Knicks continuing to heal for the procedure to his ankle and has no definitive return date.

While Ja Morant offers excitement on a nightly basis he brings just a little more facing the elite teams or when national audiences are watching.
The Knicks aren’t an elite squad but they play in an arena every player gets hyped to play in (MSG) plus this game is being featured on ESPN so buckle up this should be another highlight-packed performance from the youngster.
