The Daily Memphian

On this episode of The Daily Memphian's Memphis Grizzlies podcast recorded on Tuesday, Drew Hill and Chris Herrington assess the team's apparent progress.
Is the Grizzlies' recent success due to an easier schedule or visible improvement? What aspects of the stretch will result in long-term results?
Hill and Herrington go down a list of topics and play a game of "real or not real?" Topics include defensive strides, Zach Edey impact and Cam Spencer minutes at point guard.
They also touch on the imminent return of Ja Morant, who is working his way back from a calf strain. Can Morant fit within the identity the team is forming? How should the Grizzlies want him to play?
Memphis has won seven of its last nine games with a matchup against the Utah Jazz on Friday night inside FedExForum.
