Red-hot Grizzlies bring sizzling offense, stifling D to face Pistons

Game Preview

The Memphis Grizzlies (11-7) are riding a three-game winning streak and have been firing on all cylinders lately, winning 7 of their last 10 games. Their high-powered offense is averaging a blistering 123.1 points over that stretch, fueled by sizzling shooting clips of nearly 48% from the field and 36% from three-point range. The Grizzlies have also been crashing the boards ferociously, grabbing almost 50 rebounds per game while dishing out nearly 30 assists.

On the other end, Memphis' stifling defense has held opponents to just 111 points per contest over their last 10 games. The Grizzlies are swarming on that end, racking up 8.5 steals and swatting away 8.9 blocks per game while forcing a shade over 16 turnovers. Their balanced attack and tenacious play at both ends have them looking like a force in the Western Conference.

Meanwhile, the Detroit Pistons (8-11) are coming off a much-needed win but have struggled to find consistency this season, hovering around .500 over their last 10 games. While their scoring output of 112.2 points per game has been respectable, Detroit's offense has been plagued by a modest 45% shooting clip from the field and a 36% mark from deep. The Pistons will need to find their range to keep pace with Memphis' blistering scoring.

On the glass, Detroit has held its own by pulling down 47.5 rebounds per contest, but they'll need to crash the boards hard to limit the Grizzlies' second-chance opportunities. Defensively, the Pistons are allowing 112.5 points per game over their last 10 outings, struggling to get stops consistently. Unless they can tighten up on that end and slow down Memphis' scorching offense, Detroit could be in for a long night against the surging Grizzlies.
