NBA Preview: New Orleans Pelicans try to find footing in Memphis against free-falling Grizzlies on MLK Day

The New Orleans Pelicans look to end their five-game road trip on a high note in the home of The Blues, as they face the Memphis Grizzlies on Monday afternoon.

This will be the third meeting of the season between the two teams. They split the first two, with each winning on their home floor.

Both teams are in precarious positions, sitting 12th and 14th respectively in the Western Conference standings.

Memphis (19-27) appears to be in free fall, having lost 11 of its last 12 games, including its last five in a row.

The days of the Grizzlies being a consistent playoff team seem a lifetime ago.
