Through 3 Quarters
Only one more quarter stands between the Memphis Grizzlies and the win they were favored to collect going into this night. Three quarters in and their offense has really been able to impose its will, dominating the Minnesota Timberwolves 96-77.
The Grizzlies have been riding high on the performance of point guard Ja Morant, who has 21 points and nine assists in addition to eight boards. One thing to keep an eye out for is Brandon Clarke’s foul situation as he currently sits at four.
Small forward Anthony Edwards (20 points) has been the top scorer for Minnesota. Anthony Edwards has also picked up four fouls, though.
the Timberwolves have lost 85% of the time when they were down heading into the fourth quarter this year, so this one seems just about wrapped up

What to Know
After a few days’ rest for both teams, the Minnesota Timberwolves and the Memphis Grizzlies will meet up at 8:30 p.m. ET April 19 at FedExForum. Minnesota isn’t expected to win, but seeing as the odds didn’t stop them last game, maybe the squad has another upset up their sleeve.
Memphis is out to make up for these teams’ contest this past Saturday. The Timberwolves took down Memphis 130-117. Minnesota can attribute much of their success to small forward Anthony Edwards, who had 36 points and six assists.
Minnesota is expected to win this handily, but they should have beaten the Washington Wizards April 5 easily too and instead slipped up with a 132-114. In other words, don’t count the Grizzlies out just yet.
