Oklahoma City Thunder | Game #25 Preview: Memphis Grizzlies

The Thunder continues their road trip Wednesday night as they take on Ja Morant and the Memphis Grizzlies. The Grizzlies are on a 3-game win streak of their own, and they have won 5 of their last 6. Memphis is a bit banged up, and they’re definitely missing Desmond Bane, who has been out with a sprained right big toe, but when these two teams met in OKC just a couple of weeks ago, the Grizzlies did just fine, defeating the Thunder 121-110. Tonight’s matchup should be a good one featuring two of the best young guards in the league in Shai Gilgeous-Alexander and Ja Morant.

Thunder Against the Spread | OKC Will Keep Covering as a Road Dog in Memphis

Ja Morant owns the better head-to-head record with Shai Gilgeous-Alexander, but Shai has been the better player in their matchups over the last few years. While that is the matchup most people are excited for, there’s more to this story that makes me think OKC can not only cover the spread but perhaps win the game.

The Oklahoma City Thunder picked up a win in Detroit against the Pistons on Monday behind Shai Gilgeous-Alexander’s 31 points, but tonight, the Thunder will be without their star point guard as they host the Memphis Grizzlies at Chesapeake Energy Arena. SGA is dealing with plantar fascitis in his right foot, so he should be considered game-to-game at this point.

The Oklahoma City Thunder looked solid against a short-handed Dallas Mavericks team on Thursday, but they were actually the short-handed team yesterday with Shai Gilgeous-Alexander sitting out, among others. Today, the Thunder hosts the Memphis Grizzlies, and it will be even worse for OKC as Luguentz Dort, Darius Bazley, Al Horford, and Theo Maledon will all be missing from the starting lineup for various reasons.

After dismissing four players back in January the Cowboys are finally playing with confidence again. With a roster that is down to just seven scholarship players, OSU pushed #8 Texas Tech and #13 Kansas to the brink before logging their first win in Waco since 2015 and closing out the season with a win over West Virginia in the finale.
