Your Memphis Grizzlies Travel to Charlotte to Take on the Hornets!
Just one night after taking the Boston Celtics to the wire, the Memphis Grizzlies (24-45) go on the road to play the red hot Charlotte Hornets (36-34). The shorthanded Grizz played as hard as they had all season to keep the Celtics at bay until the fourth quarter, surrendering a lead that reached as much as seven points. The youth led Hornets got off to a slow start to the season, but rebounded spectacularly and are now firmly in the Eastern Conference play-in positions.
