The Memphis Grizzlies lost to the Golden State Warriors 122-120 on Wednesday, with Jordan Poole’s game-winning layup giving the Warriors the victory. Meanwhile, Memphis is aiming to get back on track and end its four-game losing streak.

Their current skid is their longest of the year, and it comes on a five-game road trip against opposition that is directly above them in the Western Conference rankings. The Grizzlies went on an 11-game winning streak just before this road trip, so there is really no cause for fear, but they don’t want to start 0-5 here.
