Memphis Grizzlies: form and statistics

The Grizzlies have missed the playoffs only once since 2021, but they have failed to become the new dynasty their leaders promised. Moreover, Memphis has never gone beyond the second round. In the last championship, the Tennessee team stumbled in the first one, losing in four matches to the future title holder Oklahoma.

During the last season, the head coach was replaced in Memphis. Taylor Jenkins, who lost control of the situation, was dismissed, and Tuomas Iisalo took his place. It is the Finnish specialist who will lead the team in the new championship.

New Orleans Pelicans: form and statistics

The Pelicans, like the Grizzlies, have been among the shadow favorites of the championship for years, but the Louisiana team has not been able to confirm this status. The last championship turned out to be a failure. New Orleans finished 14th in the Western Conference with a 21-61 record.

If the Pelicans manage to do without injuries in the new season, they may well significantly improve the result. However, the infirmary is already starting to replenish. So Kevin Looney, who just moved to New Orleans from Golden State, will miss the start of the championship.
