Golden State Warriors vs Memphis Grizzlies Starting Lineups and Depth Charts for April 1 | 2024-25 NBA Season

The Golden State Warriors and Memphis Grizzlies are set to face off in a high-stakes matchup with significant implications for the Western Conference standings. This will be the fourth and final meeting between the two teams this season, with the Warriors currently holding a 2-1 edge in the series.

Following the Grizzlies' loss to the Boston Celtics on Monday, the Warriors are now tied with Memphis in the loss column and trail by just half a game for the fifth seed. With a win in Memphis on Tuesday, Golden State would not only jump to fifth place in the standings but also clinch the head-to-head tiebreaker. With the playoff race is heating up, every game matters.

The Grizzlies currently sit at 44-31, just ahead of the Warriors, who hold a 43-31 record. Meanwhile, the seventh-seeded LA Clippers and eighth-seeded Minnesota Timberwolves are close behind, both with records of 43-32. With the standings this tight, even a minor slip-up by either the Warriors or Grizzlies could drop them into the play-in tournament zone.
