As the Memphis Grizzlies prepare to face the Dallas Mavericks on Saturday, only 19 games remain in their 2018-19 NBA season. Things are winding down quickly for a club that is all but eliminated from playoff contention.
Though the odds of a postseason appearance by the Grizzlies this year has been unlikely for quite some time, there remains plenty to play for.
The theme is Project Rebuild, if you will. Memphis has already dealt one (Marc Gasol) of two franchise cornerstones in 2019, and the second (Mike Conley) will likely pack his bags at some point during the summer offseason timeframe.
