The Memphis Grizzlies are “moving and grooving” even while Ja Morant and Zach Edey watch from the sidelines thanks to some humble leadership from head coach Taylor Jenkins.

The injury-ravaged Memphis Grizzlies and Taylor Jenkins have not had a smooth start to the 2024-25 NBA season. Ja Morant, Desmond Bane, GG Jackson, and Zach Edey are all on the injury report.

The Memphis Grizzlies are going with a next-man-up mentality as Thanksgiving Day dinner plans become more set in stone. Much like parents and children fighting over a refusal to eat certain vegetables, Ja Morant and the Grizzlies have had little choice in the matter.

Draymond Green has made plenty of enemies throughout the course of his career, and as long as he’s active, his physicality on the court and combative nature off of it will continue to draw the ire of his opponents. Most recently, Green landed on hot water with the Memphis Grizzlies after he was (belatedly) called […]

Several figures around the NBA have given their take on Draymond Green’s controversial foul of Zach Edey but few have been more stern than Kendrick Perkins.

Scotty Pippen Jr. and […]

Ja Morant continues to remind fans that he is one of the most electrifying players in the NBA today.
