Grizzlies vs. Rockets: Prediction, Probable Starting Lineups, Head-to-Head Stats, and Injury Updates (Apr 12)

The Houston Rockets had a late surge that sealed their postseason fate. Seeded fifth in the West, the Rockets will play their regular-season finale against the Memphis Grizzlies. This will be an important matchup as the Rockets would not want to slip further in the seeding. Playing against the Minnesota Timberwolves, Houston succumbed to a 132-136 loss. 

However, despite the loss, one big silver lining will be Kevin Durant. Following his burner account drama, many expected Durant’s form to take a hit. Thankfully, for the team, he has been in some stellar form. Playing against Minnesota, the 37-year-old veteran dropped 33 points while playing for 39 minutes. Thus, with such a promising showing, the Rockets will be firm favorites against Memphis. 

The Grizzlies, on the other hand, had a forgettable season. With a 25-56 win-loss record, the team has very few things to cherish. In their last game against the Utah Jazz, Memphis suffered a brutal 101-147 thrashing, extending its losing streak to seven games.
