The Milwaukee Bucks will look to start the All-Star break on a high note when they visit the Memphis Grizzlies at the FedEx Forum on Thursday. It's the last game day before the All-Star Weekend in Indianapolis, Indiana, and also the first meeting of the season between the two teams.
Milwaukee is having a tough time under new coach Doc Rivers. The Bucks are 3-6 since Rivers took over the team after losing 123-97 to the Miami Heat at home in the Fiserv Forum. It seems like they really need the break before resuming the campaign against the Minnesota Timberwolves on Feb. 23.
Meanwhile, the Grizzlies snapped a nine-game losing streak against the Houston Rockets. It was their first victory of the month after enduring a tough injury-plagued season.
