This Memphis Grizzlies basketball team wasn’t supposed to be competitive in 2021. Prior to Jaren Jackson Jr.‘s return, this was supposed to be a team that stayed afloat, within reaching distance of a spot in the play-in tournament. Nobody was thrilled about it, but that was the truth of the situation.

But as the NBA reaches a crucial stretch, that isn’t the case for the Memphis Grizzlies.

Rather, this Grizzlies team has found itself in a position where they’re dominating a Luka Doncic-led Dallas Mavericks team from start to finish.
