The LA Lakers will wrap up their four-game road trip on Saturday with a high-profile matchup against the Memphis Grizzlies.

Meanwhile, the Grizzlies will begin a new chapter as they play their first game following the firing of head coach Taylor Jenkins.
This will be the fourth meeting between the two teams this season, with the Lakers leading the series 2-1. It’s a crucial game for both teams as it could decide the tie-breaker, especially with both teams vying for better playoff positioning in the competitive Western Conference standings.
The Lakers and Grizzlies currently have identical records. JJ Redick's team sits in fourth place with a 44-29 record, while Ja Morant and the Grizzlies are right behind in fifth place with the same record. Both teams have struggled with consistency recently, with the Lakers losing six of their last 10 games and the Grizzlies dropping five of their last 10 contests.
