The Memphis Grizzlies faced a shocking defeat against the San Antonio Spurs, losing by just two points in a game that fans expected them to win. Without star player Ja Morant, Memphis still had a chance to solidify their playoff position against a struggling Spurs team missing Victor Wembanyama. Instead, De'Aaron Fox's last-second bucket sealed the deal for San Antonio. The Grizzlies were also at the center of a controversial officiating call, as an uncalled foul on Zach Edey on Devin Vassell could have changed the game's outcome.

The loss puts Memphis in a precarious position, especially with competition from teams like the Los Angeles Lakers. The Grizzlies, now facing increased pressure, must capitalize on upcoming games to regain momentum as they aim for a secure playoff berth.
