The Grizzlies are winning even without the 2019-20 Rookie of the Year. Counting their latest win against the Milwaukee Bucks, the Grizzlies are now 17-2 with Morant sitting out. A few of those 17 wins have come against quality opponents like the Miami Heat, Dallas Mavericks, Philadelphia 76ers and Brooklyn Nets.Other Memphis players who have had terrific seasons are Desmond Bane and Jarren Jackson Jr. Bane has improved his scoring average from 9.2 ppg in his rookie season to 18.2 ppg this season. Jackson, who leads the league in blocks per game, is a contender for Defensive Player of the Year.Important contributions have come from Dillon Brooks, De'Anthony Melton and Steven Adams as well.The Grizzlies are second in the Western Conference. They are three-and-a-half games ahead of the Golden State Warriors. Should they maintain that lead through the end of the regular season, the Grizzlies will have the benefit of home-court advantage in at least the first two rounds of the playoffs.
