The Grizzlies have strengthened their grip on the No. 2 seed in the Western Conference, winning nine of their last 10 games, including the last three. During this stretch, Jaren Jackson Jr. has been a standout performer, averaging 25.1 points, 5.2 rebounds and 2.5 assists.

However, despite their success, the Grizzlies are 13-11 on the road, while the Raptors have had 12 of their 16 overall victories this season at home. Toronto is coming off a 121-115 loss to the New York Knicks and will be playing on the second night of a back-to-back, but its homecourt advantage remains a factor.

The two teams have faced off this season, with the Grizzlies cruising to a dominant 155-126 win. Eight Grizzlies players scored in double figures, outrebounding the Raptors by 23.
