The Minnesota Timberwolves will match up with the Memphis Grizzlies for the second time in ten days on Saturday afternoon, in a Martin Luther King Day matinee. The Wolves have yet another contest against a high-level opponent after coming up short against the Cleveland Cavaliers at home on Saturday.
Memphis currently sits in third place in the standings, despite dealing with some serious injury struggles this season. The Grizzlies have an extremely deep squad, and they will be a very tough out on their home court. Meanwhile, Minnesota has won five of their last eight and has seen more success on the offensive side of things as of late. This should be another classic meeting between these two conference rivals.
Timberwolves projected starting lineup vs Grizzlies
With Donte DiVincenzo out once again due to a toe sprain, Mike Conley is likely to be in Chris Finch's starting lineup once again.
