The Memphis Grizzlies and Dallas Mavericks meet Saturday night at the American Airlines Center. Memphis enters with a 5-11 record, fresh off a 137-point win over Sacramento where Santi Aldama scored 29. Still, they’ve struggled on the road, winning just once in seven tries.
Dallas sits at 5-12, coming off a tight 118-115 victory over New Orleans led by Cooper Flagg’s 29 points and strong support from P.J. Washington and Max Christie. The Mavericks have been inconsistent offensively but defend the three well. Both teams are looking to build momentum as they battle for position in the Western Conference standings.
Game Details
Santi Aldama showcased his scoring ability in Memphis’ recent win over Sacramento, where he poured in 29 points to lead the offense. With the Grizzlies struggling to find consistent production, Aldama’s role has grown more important, especially when the team needs a spark on the road.
His versatility as a forward allows him to score both inside and from the perimeter, giving Memphis a reliable option beyond their usual backcourt contributors. Given his recent performance and the team’s need for offensive balance, reaching the 20-point mark is a realistic expectation if he maintains his aggressive approach.

The Mavericks and Grizzlies enter this matchup with nearly identical records, both searching for consistency. Memphis showed offensive firepower in their win over Sacramento, but their struggles on the road remain a concern.
Dallas, meanwhile, leaned on Cooper Flagg, P.J. Washington, and Max Christie in their recent victory over New Orleans, and their ability to defend the perimeter gives them an edge. With both teams ranked near the bottom offensively, this game is likely to stay tight throughout. In a close contest, the Mavericks’ home court and defensive discipline could be enough to see them nick the win.
