The Dallas Mavericks will be taking on the Memphis Grizzlies for their last game of the NBA Cup group stages. According to the Mavs injury report, Klay Thompson might not be available to suit up for their upcoming game. Already, beating the Grizzlies has begun to look like a tough task for the Dallas Mavericks.
Memphis, on the other hand, only has a couple of injuries to deal with, so tomorrow’s game will prove to be easier for them. However, it is worth noting that if the Grizzlies lose, they will be knocked out of the NBA Cup. This means they’ll be playing under pressure, as tomorrow’s match is a must-win for them.
