The Memphis Grizzlies will visit the Golden State Warriors at Oracle Arena on Monday evening.

Memphis (16-13) has cooled off a bit recently, going just 1-4 over its last five games. The Grizzlies are coming off a loss to the Houston Rockets on Saturday in which they once again failed to crack the 100-point mark. Memphis has scored in triple figures just once in its last eight games, and the stagnant offense seems to be taking its toll on the team. The Grizzlies have fallen to just 26th in the league in offensive rating and are scoring just 102.5 points per game on average. Still, Memphis remains seventh in the Western Conference standings and very much in the playoff hunt, thanks largely to its powerhouse defense. Allowing just 102.1 points per game, Memphis ranks second in the NBA in opponent scoring.

Golden State (20-10), on the other hand, boasts the league's top offense and and a stellar 5-1 record in its last six games. Everything seems to be falling back into place for the reigning champions, who hit a rough patch during November with injuries to Steph Curry and Draymond Green. Curry and Green have both returned to action in recent weeks, though, and Curry's 29.3 points per game are leading the team. Kevin Durant has been equally potent offensively, putting up 29 points per game and also averaging over six assists. The Warriors also expect that key bench pieces Andre Iguodala (hip) and Shaun Livingston (pelvis) will make their return on Monday after extended absences with their own injuries. Golden State will hope to be at nearly full-strength as it puts its top-ranked offense to work against Memphis's elite "grit and grind" defense.
