Thunder vs Grizzlies preview: shorthanded OKC looks to avoid further missteps

Two thirds of the Big 3 went MIA in the Thunder’s 106-81 loss to the Los Angeles Lakers on Thursday. Russell Westbrook and Carmelo Anthony were both out with ankle injuries and neither of them practiced on Saturday, and are labeled ‘questionable’ for Sunday’s game against Memphis. Without the offensive prowess of both Westbrook and Anthony, the Thunder turned in their worst offensive performance on Thursday. 36% from the floor, 24% from beyond the arc, and turning out just 16 assists will not get the job done, even against this below average Memphis Grizzlies team.
