The Memphis Grizzlies find themselves in a precarious position as they face the Oklahoma City Thunder in the playoffs, currently down 2-0 in the series. Their recent loss highlighted persistent issues, particularly with turnovers and offensive rebounds, which have been crucial against a top-tier team like the Thunder. Interim coach Tuomas Iisalo's focus is now on 'defending home court' at FedExForum, where the Grizzlies have performed significantly better this season.

Despite Shai Gilgeous-Alexander's underwhelming performance in Game 2, he remains a formidable threat. The Grizzlies’ upcoming game will be pivotal, as they look to turn around their fortunes at home.
