The Memphis Grizzlies (20-31), reeling from a recent trade deadline overhaul that sent Jaren Jackson Jr. to Utah, travel to face the Golden State Warriors (28-25) in a Western Conference matchup. Golden State aims to snap a three-game home losing streak before the All-Star break, while Memphis looks to build on any post-trade momentum despite significant injuries. This game features contrasts: the Warriors’ home scoring prowess (119.3 PPG at Chase Center) against the Grizzlies’ road defensive vulnerabilities (118.2 PPG allowed away), but both teams are severely depleted.

- Other Notables: If available, Scotty Pippen Jr. (MEM) vs. Seth Curry (GSW, out); Will Richard (GSW rookie) vs. Grizz young core.
