There's already a high level of interest for what could be a special playoff run for the Grizzlies, who are the No. 2 seed in the Western Conference despite being the NBA's second youngest team.
The Grizzlies have homecourt advantage in the first round for only the second time in franchise history and have a strong chance to win their first playoff series since 2015. With 55 wins and three games remaining, the Grizzlies are also two wins shy of setting a franchise record for wins in a season.
The Grizzlies face the Denver Nuggets Thursday (8 p.m.) before returning home for a back-to-back against the New Orleans Pelicans Saturday and Boston Celtics Sunday.
