Coming off of a hard-fought win against the Utah Jazz, the Memphis Grizzlies face the L.A. Clippers for a second time this season in a match-up at Staples Center.

The Memphis Grizzlies’ win against the Utah Jazz on Monday was well deserved. Marc Gasol scored a season-high 22 points, including two three pointers and David Fizdale was proud of the team’s effort:

"”I feel like this is the best four quarters we’ve put together,” Fizdale said. ”Guys, they want to win. They really want this and we’ve worked really hard over the past couple days to clean things up.”"

However, the Clippers will prove to be a tough challenge on Wednesday night and Memphis will absolutely have to play through all four quarters. In their last match-up on Nov. 4, the Clippers defeated the Grizzlies 99-88. 

Chris Paul and Mike Conley had a great head-to- head game. Conley scored 30 points and added 10 assists (with not a single turnover), while Paul had 27 points, 11 assists and 6 (!) steals. The Grizz will have to come prepared for this one.
