KEY GAME INFORMATION
MEMPHIS: BACKCOURT: PG Mike Conley's huge contract raised some eyebrows, but he earned it. He's suffered from playing too many minutes the past couple seasons, so the team's hoping rookie PG Wade Baldwin is a capable backup right away. If not, Conley will again have to spend too much time on the court. With SG Tony Allen and SG Vince Carter at the 2, the Grizzlies could use some youth there, too. Perhaps sharpshooting SG Troy Daniels can help. . . . FRONTCOURT: PF Zach Randolph looks like an anachronism in today's league, but his scoring moves defy changing play and his own aging. JaMychal Green proved himself capable at the same position, adding depth and versatility to the lineup. C Marc Gasol and SF Chandler Parsons are both recovering from surgery, and both have skill sets that don't exist elsewhere on this roster. . . . BOTTOM LINE: Betting on this team's health is a precarious proposition, but so is betting against their grit. They'll almost certainly be healthier than last year, and can put out a wider variety of lineups than in years past.
DENVER: BACKCOURT: PG Emmanuel Mudiay was kind of what everyone expected him to be last year: talented and productive but inconsistent and inefficient. If he can improve as much as SG Gary Harris did in his sophomore campaign last year, he'll be in good shape. SG Will Barton was a revelation as a sixth man last season, and he's a veteran in this backcourt at 25 years old. Rookie guards Jamal Murray and Malik Beasley enter with lots of potential. . . . FRONTCOURT: SF Danilo Gallinari did everything for the Nugs last year before getting injured after the All Star break. His health is a serial problem, but he's the team's leader if he's on the court. C Nikola Jokic is the complete package as a center, and C Jusuf Nurkic is a bully off the bench. PF Kenneth Faried's style of play isn't en vogue in a league that wants shooters at every position, but he dominates when he plays up to his ability. . . . BOTTOM LINE: The Nuggets are loaded with young talent, but they're developing almost all of it simultaneously. Wins shouldn't be a priority for a team this young, and Gallinari and Faried are frequent subjects of trade rumors.
PREVIEW
Grizzlies look to get well versus Nuggets
 

Memphis was quiet at the trading deadline but a few teams were busy, including one -- Oklahoma City -- that is a half-game behind the Grizzlies in the Western Conference standings.

It will make for an interesting last 23 games for Memphis. The Grizzlies weren't expected to be a playoff team this year but are sitting sixth in the competitive Western Conference. They are fighting for positioning at this point while the Denver Nuggets are battling to hold onto the last slot.

That is the drama that surrounds the teams when they play in Denver on Sunday afternoon.

Memphis (34-25) is on a two-game skid after Friday's loss at Indiana, but might find some relief against the Nuggets. The Grizzlies won both meetings this year and three in a row dating back to last season.

The last matchup, Feb. 1 in Denver, was supposed to be payback for the Nuggets after their one-point loss in Memphis in November but instead the Grizzlies dominated from the start in a 119-99 victory.

Denver (26-32) beefed up its frontcourt since that loss. The Nuggets traded for 6-foot-11 Mason Plumlee on Feb. 12 and acquired 7-2 Roy Hibbert from Milwaukee on Thursday.

Plumlee played three games for Denver while Hibbert could make his debut Sunday after getting held up while traveling to Colorado on Friday.

The questionable status of Kenneth Faried, who left Friday's victory over Brooklyn with back spasms, might provide Hibbert with an opportunity to play.

Plumlee showed his value in a short period of time. He averaged 11 points and eight rebounds in the three games and came within two assists of a triple-double against the Nets. He provided a much-needed inside presence with a fatigued Nikola Jokic having an off night.

"My confidence is just growing," he said after the game. "I think as you continue to grow, you get better. I think we just improved. I'm just feeling guys on the floor and what guys like to do and tendencies. For your own teammates it's very important so it will get better."

The Grizzlies are trying to get better overall after Friday's disappointing loss to the Pacers. Memphis trailed by as many as 29 against Indiana before making it a respectable 102-92 finish. It was the third loss in four games.

"Just when you think your team is looking good, feeling good, you can't ever get comfortable because stuff like this happens," Memphis coach David Fizdale told The Commercial-Appeal after Friday's game. "But we've shown a tendency all year to come back from tough losses and regroup."

Brandon Wright missed the game in Indiana for personal reasons and his status for Sunday is unknown.

Denver had a pair of disappointing losses that bookended the All-Star break. It dropped a home game to Minnesota on Feb. 15 and another in Sacramento on Thursday.

The Nuggets know if they are going to hold off New Orleans, Portland and the Kings for that last playoff spot, they need to be more consistent. Friday, they got back to that despite an off night from Jokic.

"A lot of guys stepped up," coach Michael Malone said. "It was a good bounce-back win after a disappointing performance in Sacramento."
