On Sunday, November 6th, the Memphis Grizzlies play host to the Washington Wizards in the first of two contests this season. Washington will host the second meeting on November 13th.
Both teams last played on Friday with Washington getting thrashed 86-128 by the Nets while the Grizzlies routed the Hornets 130-99.
This is the front side of a back-to-back set for both clubs with the Wizards heading to Charlotte for Monday’s match and the Grizzlies playing the Celtics on the back side.
Last season the clubs split the two-game season series. The Grizzlies hold the all-time record with 29 wins in 51 matches versus the Wizards.
Washington Wizards
It’s been a steady but constant slide down the ranking ladder for the Wizards (I told you this would happen) as the Wiz demonstrate a subpar defensive unit and struggle to find constancy on offense.
Considering their schedule has offered an even mixture of top and bottom teams the fact they’re sliding so quickly should be a harbinger for GM Tommy Sheppard to get on the phones.
Offensively, Washington scores 108.0 points per 100 possessions ranking 27th while shooting 47.0 percent from the field (14th). They’ve experienced a massive drop off in their perimeter shooting, falling 10 spots in a week — 32.7% to rank 27th.
Defense is the area where they’re dropped the most since the season started. Washington allows 113.2 points per game (14th) allowing opponents to shoot 46.5 percent from the field (17th) and a league-worst 41.3 percent from the perimeter.
Washington has committed to Bradley Beal long-term but should they consider cutting him now to gain future success? And if not then they need to answer a question that’s plagued many an analyst for years – WHO are the Wizards?
Delon Wright (hamstring) is out indefinitely.
Memphis Grizzlies
Although Luka Doncic and Giannis Antetokounmpo are the early season bets to win MVP don’t count out Ja Morant.
The 23-year-old is averaging 29 points, 7.0 assists, and 5.0 rebounds. He’s shooting 50% from deep on 3.8 attempts and getting to the line for 9.3 free throws per game.
Desmond Bane is an early season Most Improved candidate experiencing increases in all three major categories with 24.1 points, 5.3 rebounds, and 4.6 assists. He’s also upped his 3-point attempts from 6.9 to 8.9 per game and is hitting them with 46.5% efficiency.
Offensively, the Grizzlies are among the top squads in the league scoring the second most points per game (118.7). They’re shooting efficiently too hitting 47.2 percent from the field and 39.5 percent from the perimeter ranking 11th and third respectively.
Defense is the area the Grizz needs to clean up and can’t afford to wait until Jaren Jackson Jr’s return to deal with. They allow opponents to score 117.2 points per game (26th) while shooting 46.2% from the field (13th) and 37.1% from the perimeter (23rd).
Ziaire Williams (knee – mid-Dec) Jackson Jr. (foot – late Dec) and Danny Green (ACL -mid-Feb) are out indefinitely.

Free Washington Wizards vs. Memphis Grizzlies NBA Prediction:
Every once and a while the Wizards show up to play and put on an impressive performance — but — all an opponent has to do is hit them early with physicality as Washington’s tendency is to back off at the first sign of aggression.
Memphis is precisely the type of team who will hit first, but even with that knowledge, the spread feels a little rich particularly because the Grizz are still working on improving defensively.
