Though they dominated the Grizzlies for 25 years, the Spurs have seen the head-to-head series swing the other way in recent seasons.
The San Antonio Spurs trade for De’Aaron Fox brought about a prediction or two of what it would mean for not only the team but perhaps for the NBA’s Western Conference playoff picture.

• The Grizzlies are first in the league in scoring, averaging 123.3 after a 151-148 win in overtime against Phoenix on Tuesday. It was the highest scoring game in Memphis history and the 299 combined points were the most in an NBA game this season.
