The Memphis Grizzlies (32-21) enter Tuesday’s interconference battle against the Chicago Bulls at FedEx Forum after losing eight of their last nine games – their worst stretch of the season.
The Grizzlies were defeated 106-103 by the Toronto Raptors on Sunday evening – their most recent stumble with Desmond Bane finishing with 26 points, four assists, two rebounds, four steals and one block.
Jaren Jackson poured in 18 points, eight rebounds and four blocks, Santi Aldama turned in 15 points, six rebounds, four assists and two blocks and Xavier Tillman scored 12 points and added nine boards, three assists and one steal.
The Grizzlies are still without Steven Adams (knee) for Tuesday’s game.
The Bulls (26-27) are coming into the contest having won three straight and eight of the last 11 overall.
The Chicago throttled the San Antonio Spurs 128-104 on Monday as Nikola Vucevic managed 22 points, 12 rebounds, four assists, two blocks and one steal.
Andre Drummond netted 21 points, Zach LaVine scored 20 and DeMar DeRozan supplied 19 points.
The Bulls will likely list Alex Caruso (foot) as no better than questionable for the game at Fedex Forum. Javonte Green (knee) and Lonzo Ball (knee), however, will definitely remain out.
