DETROIT – The Grizzlies know a thing or two about streaking.
They entered the week powered by one of the NBA’s most prolific offenses and riding a season-best, seven-game winning streak. And after two straight defensive letdowns, the Grizzlies close the week hoping to address some slippage and avoid a three-game losing streak.
The ebb and flow of an NBA season, especially for one of the youngest rotations in the league, features its share of ups and downs through an 82-game schedule. The Grizzlies are now tasked with stabilizing themselves through this dose of turbulence by digging in defensively.
