With both teams currently sporting the same record, the Lakers and Grizzlies will fight for the fourth seed on Saturday.

The Lakers’ current four-game road trip will conclude at Memphis, where they will take on the Grizzlies. With both teams having nine games left, this is an extremely important contest regarding playoff implications.

It’s also the last the last time these two reams see each other in the regular season as L.A. currently holds the tiebreaker.
