The Memphis Grizzlies will head out on the road to face off against the Toronto Raptors at 7:30 p.m. ET on Monday at Scotiabank Arena. Both of these teams will be looking for a pick-me-up after considerable defeats in their previous games.

It’s hard to win when you’re outrebounded 13 to 3 on offense, a fact the Grizzlies found out the hard way on Saturday. They suffered a bruising 125-96 loss at the hands of Chicago. The Grizzlies have now taken an ‘L’ in back-to-back games.

The Grizzlies’ loss came about despite a quality game from Jaren Jackson Jr., who scored 26 points along with six rebounds and five assists. Less helpful for the Grizzlies was Ziaire Williams’ abysmal 0-5 three-point shooting.

Meanwhile, the Raptors managed to keep up with the Knicks until halftime on Saturday, but things quickly went downhill from there. Toronto ended up on the wrong side of a bruising 126-100 walloping at the hands of New York.

The Raptors are probably breathing a sigh of relief since Ja Morant is out with an injury to his shoulder. The last time Morant took on the Raptors was on January 3rd, where he scored 28 points along with nine assists and eight rebounds. Despite his strong showing, Memphis still fell 116-111 to Toronto.
