Teams Preview
Memphis Grizzlies Preview
The Memphis Grizzlies are currently struggling with injuries as none of their star players are in the recovery room instead of the court. Jaren Jackson Jr. returned to action and took care of the proceedings for the Grizzlies. The former block leader is now carrying the offensive load of the side, too.
Currently, the Grizzlies stand in 19th position with a 116-point average, which is a slight upward move for the side following the star’s return. Santi Aldama and Cadric Coward shared the offensive load and had been key players in Morant’s absence.
The side ranks 24th in the offensive rating with a 113.1 rating, while defensively, the team ranks 14th in the league with a 114.3 defensive rating. The side averages 45.8 rebounds and ranks fourth in rebound average. Following some good ball movement, the side averages 29.1 assists per game and ranks sixth in the league. Although the side performed well on the offensive end, the team averaged 4.9 blocks and 7.9 steals per game.
Phoenix Suns Preview
The new look Sun might just have the perfect combination with the number of stars around Devin Booker. Even though the side lost early games, their performance improved drastically, and they moved into the playoff rankings. They have an offensive rating of 114.6 and a defensive rating of 112.9, which is good enough to place them in the 17th position overall in league ratings. The Team is averaging 114.8 points per game and sits in 22nd position in the league.
The Suns' average of 43.3 rebounds per game is also a good sign for the team with no renowned big man around the rim. Their assist average also decreased slightly to 25.2 assists per game with a hefty 15.6 turnovers, ranking 21st in the league.
Defensively, the Suns top the league with a 10.6 steals per game average in the 2025-26 season. While their perimeter defence is working great for them, the rim protection has been an issue for them, and they average 4.1 blocks per game, which is just around the league’s mean.
