@ Memphis Grizzlies (15-9)

 

Current odds:

Los Angeles Lakers: (+105)

Memphis Grizzlies: (-125)

 

• The line for the game is Memphis by 1.5 points.

• LeBron James registered 35 points, 11 assists and eight rebounds against the Spurs, but he was among the players who faded as he scored just four points in the fourth quarter. Walton measured his words cautiously when asked about James, who was especially strong in the first half with 24 points. “He gets to where he wants to on the court,” Walton said. “He got shots, he got to the rim a few times. We didn’t score a lot in the fourth, but I thought it was more our defense that was the letdown.”

• JaMychal Green scored a season-high 24 points on 9-of-12 shooting and collected eight rebounds in the win over the Pelicans. The strong effort was his second in a row, following a 19-point, 11-rebound performance against the Los Angeles Clippers on Wednesday, and he seemingly has fully recovered from the broken jaw that sidelined him for four weeks earlier this season. “He goes out there and fights every possession,” Bickerstaff said. “He brings an energy and an intensity, and he’s got the ability to stretch the floor.”

• Los Angeles PG Lonzo Ball matched his season high of 11 assists and also scored 13 points against the Spurs.
