Five things to watch: Spurs vs. Grizzlies

Can the Spurs snap their long-losing skid against the Grizzlies?

SAN ANTONIO — The San Antonio Spurs (19-59) will visit the Memphis Grizzlies (27-51) 

GAME REWIND

The Spurs are coming off a home loss versus the 76ers, 133-126, in double-overtime.

Victor Wembanyama scored 33 points and 18 rebounds, and Julian Champagnie scored 17 in the loss. Zach Collins contributed nine points, Malaki Branham scored 22 points, and Devonte Graham posted nine.

Due to injuries, San Antonio was without Jeremy Sochan, Cedi Osman, and Devin Vassell. Keldon Johnson exited the game in the second half with a foot injury but scored seven points.

"They [Spurs] were great. Double overtime game," Gregg Popovich said. "They're learning a lot but the difference in that game was the fact that they [76ers] could dial up their defensive pressure. 25 turnovers which resulted in 35 points, [we] shouldn't even be in the ball game if you do that. That's been one of our deals all year when that [defensive] pressure is dialed up."
