Both teams are coming off a loss yesterday as they play the second night of a back-to-back against a tough, competitive opponent.
This season, Toronto was counting on sophomore Scottie Barnes to take a leap, but he is putting up almost identical numbers on the offensive end per 36 minutes and has taken a step back on the defensive end.
On the other side for Memphis, the Grizzlies have seen their young wing Desmond Bane take another giant leap as he is up to 22.4 points, 4.5 rebounds and 3.9 assists per game as the team’s second-leading scorer and playmaker next to Morant.
