SAS vs MEM Dream11: Hello NBA fans, how is it going? I hope y’all are fine and enjoying the league. The NBA is moving towards the Playoffs at a rapid pace and it is stunning how quickly another season is moving towards its final stages. For as many as ten teams, the journey will be over in 10-11 days, while the number of teams will only decrease from here on. This is the way the NBA has been for many seasons but since the last two seasons, the Play-in tournament has added intrigue as the ninth and tenth spot teams remain in the shot to make it to the First Round. And one of the Play-in contenders in the San Antonio Spurs will clash against the Memphis Grizzlies.

The Spurs have found a way into the tenth rank all of a sudden and this is due to the continuous underwhelming play by the Los Angeles Lakers. The team has a huge chance of nabbing a Play-in spot and this remaining window is virtually a knockout situation for the squad. Can DeJounte Murray and co. capitalize upon it?

Meanwhile, the Grizzlies have shown the league that they are the second-best team and may potentially face the Suns in the Conference Finals. Even without Ja Morant, they have been able to raze opponents and even Playoffs-bound teams have stood no chance against them at home. Memphis keeps on making statements.

Host: San Antonio Spurs
Visitors: Memphis Grizzlies

Match Timing: 31 March, @ 06:00 AM

NBA Projections, Stats & Analysis

The Spurs come into this game after beating the Rockets 123:120 as DeJounte Murray dropped 33 points.

The Spurs have carved out a way into the tenth spot and they have made sure that they don’t lose games against below 40% win squads recently. The major reason for their elevated play has been Keldon Johnson’s increase in points production alongside Josh Richardson’s scoring ways. DeJounte has been a huge factor all season long while Poeltl has been a factor in the paint for most parts. Playing without McDermott and Lonnie Walker IV has created some fractures but coach Greg has found a way to spark the team through its intricate ball movement and much more improved defense. The win against the Pelicans a few days ago was huge while the team has shown that it is gearing for the Play-in run, however, the road is still tricky.

The Grizzlies dismantled the short-handed Warriors 123:95 as Bane, Brooks, and Melton each scored 20 points or so.

The Grizzlies depth has been the main reason for their special run. It’s as if the team doesn’t even bat an eye even when their core players go missing, which is surely not a common phenomenon in this league. The growth of Desmond Bane, the tenacity of Steven Adams, the two-way prowess of Dillon Brooks, the defensive dynamics brought in by Jaren Jackson, the playmaking of Tyus Jones, the slashing game of Brandon Clarke, the temperament of Kyle Anderson, the elevated scoring of De’Anthony Melton, the maturity of rookie Ziairie Williams has been a huge reason why the Grizzlies are able to threaten any opponent. They have beaten every elite team, they have the best running game, and their defense has continually pulled through.
