What channel is Memphis Grizzlies' game today? Time, TV schedule for Lakers-Grizzlies
The Memphis Grizzlies have a difficult three-game road trip upcoming, starting against the Los Angeles Lakers on Friday at crypto.com Arena.
Memphis has lost four of five games after a four-game winning streak in Ja Morant's first four games coming off of suspension. The Grizzlies could not come all the way back from a 14-point halftime deficit in 116-111 loss to Toronto on Wednesday.
This will be the first game between the Lakers and Grizzlies with Morant available since the first round of the NBA playoffs last spring, a series the Lakers won in five games. Memphis and LA have played once this season, a 134-107 Lakers win on Nov. 14 in Los Angeles.
