The 2018-19 NBA season is here. Basketball is back. The Memphis Grizzlies will play their first preseason exhibition game on Tuesday when they face the Houston Rockets.
There is plenty to label as “different” for the Grizzlies in the new season. Though there were some major changes with the team this time last year, a lot has changed over the course of the offseason.
The bench is much improved. The squad has greater depth, especially when you consider the versatility at every position. However, Memphis did not make changes in order to align with the rest of the league.
