What to Know

The Memphis Grizzlies and the Sacramento Kings will face off at 9 p.m. ET May 14 at FedExForum after both having played games yesterday. Memphis has the odds in their favor, so they'll need to guard against complacency.

Sacramento is out to make up for these teams' contest on Thursday. The Grizzlies snuck past the Kings with a 116-110 victory. Memphis' center Jonas Valanciunas did his thing and posted a double-double on 24 points and 13 boards. That makes it four consecutive games in which Valanciunas has had at least 11 rebounds.

Memphis' win lifted them to 37-33 while Sacramento's loss dropped them down to 31-39. Allowing an average of 117.51 points per game, Sacramento hasn't exactly asserted themselves on the defensive end. We'll see if they can patch up the holes in their defense before their upcoming matchup.
