MEMPHIS – The worst snow storm Memphis has seen in decades comes just as the Grizzlies prepare to face arguably their most difficult matchup of any team in the NBA.
The Next Gen Grizzlies have been unable to break through against these new look Pelicans in the past two years, having dropped four consecutive games to New Orleans heading into Tuesday’s game at FedExForum.
Reigning NBA Rookie of the Year Ja Morant and Pelicans catalyst Zion Williamson headline the showdown as childhood buddies who were the top two picks in the 2019 NBA Draft.
