In their last game against the Utah Jazz, Memphis put up a strong fight offensively, scoring 109 points. However, defensive struggles were evident as they allowed 133 points against them. The team showed proficiency from the free-throw line with a solid 78 percent completion rate but struggled from beyond the arc with only a 26 percent three-point shooting percentage.


The Grizzlies also demonstrated depth in scoring with an impressive contribution of 50 bench points. Rebounding was another area of strength; they out-rebounded their opponents by grabbing a total of 55 rebounds – including an aggressive presence in offensive boards with 14.


Looking ahead to their match-up in Portland, it's crucial for Memphis to tighten up defensively and maintain their free-throw efficiency while improving three-point shot selection and conversion rates. The Moda Center is known for its energetic atmosphere which could play into home-court advantage for the Trail Blazers; however, it also presents an opportunity for Memphis players to rise to the occasion under pressure.


The upcoming game is scheduled for November 4th at Moda Center in Portland. Fans can catch all the action on ROOT Sports NW or BSSE networks depending on location. With tip-off set at local time (2:00 AM UTC), supporters will be hoping that this encounter marks a turning point where we witness a more cohesive unit that can secure those much-needed wins moving forward.
