A Western Conference matchup with major roster implications is set for tonight as the Memphis Grizzlies face the Portland Trail Blazers at the Moda Center.

The Grizzlies enter the contest with a 20–29 record, trying to stay competitive despite roster changes and limited availability of star players. Portland, meanwhile, stand at 23–28 and will be looking to end their recent losing streak, especially with the advantage of playing at home.
