They have a 3-2 lead in the series, so they can advance to the second round with a victory on Friday night.  

In Game 5, the Grizzlies beat the Lakers by a score of 116-99 (in Memphis). 

That said, they have struggled on the road, going just 16-27 in the 43 games they have played away from Memphis, Tennessee. 

As for the Lakers, they are 25-18 in the 43 games they have hosted on their home floor in Los Angeles, California. 

The winner of the series will face off against either the Golden State Warriors or Sacramento Kings. 

That series is 3-2 in favor of the Warriors, and the two teams are also playing Game 6 on Friday night (in San Francisco).
