As a team, the Grizzles were too big, too strong and too fast, especially for a Raptors squad that was without three of its starters in R.J. Barrett, Immanuel Quickley and most importantly Jakob Poeltl. In turn, the outcome in Toronto gave Memphis its 10th win over the last 11 games.

Luckily for the Grizzlies, they were seeing the return of their star guard Ja Morant on Monday night after a two-game absence. While the Grizzlies have continued to see injury problems all season, the upcoming All-Star break could provide a chance for the team to get to full health.

Taylor Jenkins explained how the Grizzlies were going to juggle Ja Morant's injury concerns through the NBA All-Star break.
