The Grizzlies are indeed still among the worst teams in the Western Conference. However, lately, the team seems to have started to correct the weaknesses of their game and may well be clinging to the play-in zone shortly. Memphis has had three wins in their previous four games, and the Grizzlies are already just three wins behind the top 10 in the West.

Memphis played their most recent game away from home against Detroit and confidently outscored the East outsider 116:102. The team's leaders pulled the victory. Desmond Bane scored 49 points, and Jaren Jackson had 24 points and three blocked shots.

The Timberwolves have taken the lead in the Western Conference almost from the start and have no plans to give it up. A 16-4 record is a great result for Chris Finch's team, considering they barely made the playoffs through the play-in round last season.

In the previous game, Minnesota faced a weak opponent, San Antonio. The Wolves, playing at home, of course, had no trouble winning 102:94. Anthony Edwards, contrary to expectations, stepped on the floor and scored 17 points. But Mike Conley unexpectedly became the most productive, with 18 points. In addition, let's note Rudy Gobert's crazy 20 rebounds.

Memphis and Minnesota met on November 27, and the Timberwolves won 114:97. Since then, not much has changed, so in the upcoming game, we can expect a confident victory for the leader of the Western Conference. In addition, you should consider betting on low-scoring. Minnesota is among the best defensive teams, and Memphis has also recently added significantly to playing on their half of the court.
