The No. 2 Memphis Grizzlies host the No. 7 Los Angeles Lakers in Game 1 of their first-round matchup!
After a flurry of moves to reshape the roster and a strong second half, LeBron James and the Lakers are back in the NBA Playoffs. Los Angeles ended the season on a tear, winning eight of their final ten regular season games and defeating the Minnesota Timberwolves in the play-in tournament to capture the seventh seed.
Memphis finished the season with a 51-31 record but will be without Steven Adams and Brandon Clarke against Los Angeles. Can the Lakers upset the Grizzlies, or will Ja Morant and company be able to win four games against King James? Time will tell.
