The No. 1 seed Tigers (26-5) will play Friday at noon (ESPN2 and ESPN+) in an AAC Tournament quarterfinal matchup at Dickies Arena in Fort Worth, Texas.

Lamar Stevens will stay with the Grizzlies through the end of the season. The 27-year-old is grateful to get another shot in the NBA. 

Parth Upadhyaya and John Martin discuss what Memphis needs to do this week at the AAC Tournament to steer clear of the NCAA Tournament’s dreaded No. 8-No. 9 seed first-round matchup.

The Memphis Grizzlies didn’t have much business winning in Oklahoma City on Feb. 8, 2011, and that night now looms large in franchise lore.

Grizzlies star Ja Morant gave Utah guard Collin Sexton a thumbs down. Should Memphis get a thumbs up for another close win?

The Execs did a whole of things right against York Institute. But 18 turnovers proves costly, including the final one with nine seconds left.

Kennard went 7 for 9 from 3-point range, and Ja Morant was 4 for 7 from deep. Morant scored 28 points and Desmond Bane added 17 as Memphis posted its fourth straight win.

Here’s the story of Tony Allen in Memphis, a special connection that came so close to never taking hold, and the crucial night where it finally did. 

Penny Hardaway was named American Athletic Conference Coach of the Year Tuesday. Is that because an 11-year-old girl gave him an unexpected gift? OK, maybe not. But he did just ask her for two more.

Basketball players, like other humans, are complex, and maybe Morant more than most. There’s no precise formula to get the best of Morant on the floor with mood, health, on-court approach and on-court outcomes all interrelated.

Memphis Grizzlies guard Cam Spencer doesn’t have social media to promote his foundation, but his performance against Phoenix may help get the word out.

Ja Morant’s 29 points and six teammates in double figures overcame a monstrous first-quarter deficit to come back against Kevin Durant and the Phoenix Suns.

This is the box score for the NBA game between the Memphis Grizzlies and Phoenix Suns on Monday, March 10, 2025, at FedExForum.

Standouts from Arlington, Collierville, ECS, Houston, Lausanne and Lewisburg are up for consideration this week. 

“For the fifth straight game, the Grizzlies trailed at the half. And the Pelicans, without its star and veteran backcourt, missed two 3-pointers in the final seconds that could have forced overtime. So … good win?”
