Morant comes into the night with averages of 28.4 points, 6.3 rebounds, 7.5 assists and 1.1 steals per contest in 20 games.

He last played on December 4. against the Detroit Pistons and put up 33 points, five rebounds, ten assists and one steal (they won 122-112). 

If he continues to play at this level (and the Grizzlies do well), the former Murray State star could be in the MVP discussions.

Right now, they come into the night with a 15-9 record in their first 24 games, which has them as the third seed in the Western Conference. 

Over the last ten games, they have gone 6-4 and are also in the middle of a three-game winning streak.

At home, they have been fantastic, with a 9-2 record in 11 games hosted in Tennessee. 

As for the Thunder, they are 11-13 in their first 24 games, which has them as the 12th seed in the west. 

They are in the middle of a three-game winning streak and 5-8 in 13 games played on the road.
