The Memphis Grizzlies vs Denver Nuggets matchup is one of the 15 games scheduled on Friday. The Nuggets are placed fourth in the West with a 48-32 record, while the Grizzlies are currently in the play-in tournament spots despite trailing the Nuggets by just one game.
The remaining two games are crucial for both the Nuggets and Grizzlies. The Nuggets put an end to their four-game losing streak after a win against the Sacramento Kings on Wednesday.
On the other hand, the Grizzlies' three-game winning streak was snapped by the Minnesota Timberwolves on Thursday. Despite the valiant effort from Ja Morant [36 points], the Timberwolves had a blowout 141-125 win behind Anthony Edwards' 44-point game.

This is the last home game for the Nuggets this season, and a win will almost secure a playoff spot for them. Moreover, their chances seem to be high, given the fact that the Grizzlies are playing in back-to-back games.
