KEY GAME INFORMATION

BOSTON: General manager Danny Ainge wooed Gordon Hayward away from Utah in free agency only to see him suffer a broken fibula and dislocated ankle on a play less than six minutes into a season-opening loss at Cleveland. All eyes will now be on Kyrie Irving, who was acquired in a blockbuster trade with the Cavaliers that sent Isaiah Thomas to Cleveland. On paper it is an upgrade at point guard, adding a dynamic scorer who can create his own shot. While Boston has plenty of talent, there are also questions that need to be answered. Rebounding is a big one, and another is how exactly how this new 'position-less' starting five will fare on the defensive end. Some combination of Marcus Smart, Terry Rozier and rookie Semi Ojeleye are expected to be more involved than initially planned in an effort to fill the void created by Hayward's injury. The Celtics are set up for the future with Jaylen Brown and Jayson Tatum, but it's unclear if this group as constituted has enough firepower to dethrone the Cleveland as East champions.

MEMPHIS: The Grizzlies' streak of seven straight playoff appearances could come to an end. The Western Conference is more competitive and Memphis needs Chandler Parsons to be healthy and shooting at his best to complement Mike Conley and Marc Gasol. Parsons signed a four-year, $94 million deal a year ago as the player the Grizzlies hoped finally would be the outside shooting threat they've wanted for years. But Parsons wound up playing only 34 games shooting just 26.9 percent from 3-point range before being sidelined in March by yet another knee surgery, this on his left knee. His pay, combined with the big deals given to Conley and Gasol, limited how much Memphis could spend this offseason. Head coach David Fizdale needs several young Grizzlies to quickly develop to keep opponents from smothering Conley and Gasol.

PREVIEW

Celtics look to get well against the Grizzlies

MEMPHIS, Tenn. -- The Boston Celtics just might be getting exactly what the doctor ordered Saturday night when they visit the staggering Memphis Grizzlies.

The Celtics lost for the third time in five games Friday night, falling 107-95 at home to the Utah Jazz.

The losses have stunningly occurred following a 22-4 start that had given the Celtics the best record in the NBA.

"There's going to be times like this," Celtics standout Kyrie Irving assured after Friday's loss. "We've probably hit a little fatigue. We've probably hit a patch where we need to kind of all collectively and individually just kind of slow down for a quick second, gather ourselves and move forward."

Irving had 33 points in the loss, which came in the first meeting between the Celtics and Jazz since Gordon Hayward left Utah for Boston as a free agent in the off-season.

Hayward broke his ankle in the Celtics' opener against Cleveland and isn't expected to play again this season.

The Celtics get an opportunity to turn things back in a positive direction Saturday night against a Grizzlies club that has lost 16 of its last 18 games.

Even in a rare win Friday night, they were extended to the wire by fellow lightweight Atlanta, holding on for a 96-94 victory that ended a five-game losing streak.

Like the Celtics, the short-handed Grizzlies, still without star point guard Mike Conley, will be playing the second night of a back-to-back Saturday.

For a change, they'll be seeking a create a winning streak thanks to Friday's nail-biter.

"Winning always feels better than losing," Grizzlies interim coach J.B. Bickerstaff boasted. "I think some plays went our way."

Those plays included three potential game-tying or game-winning shots missed by the Hawks in the final 3.5 seconds.

Saturday's game tips off a two-game trip for the Celtics, who next travel to Indiana for a contest Monday night. Boston has alternated wins and losses in its last six games.

The Celtics also won't be at full strength on Saturday, with backup big man Daniel Theis having suffered a facial fracture in the loss to the Jazz.

Boston already was playing without Hayward and fellow starter Marcus Morris (strained left knee).

The Celtics swept the two-game season series over the Grizzlies last year, with a Conley absence helping produce different types of contests.

He had 19 points in a 112-109 overtime loss at home in December, a game in which Isaiah Thomas exploded for 44 points for the Celtics.

A week later, with Conley on the sidelines, the Grizzlies couldn't keep pace in Boston, losing 113-103. Thomas contributed 21 points to the win.

Conley remains sidelined indefinitely with an Achilles issue. Tyreke Evans has become the club's chief offensive option.

Evans had a game-high 22 points, including the eventual difference-making hoop with 1:03 remaining, in Friday's win over the Hawks.

It was Evans' 10th game of 18 or more points in Conley's 16-game absence, during which the Grizzlies have gone 2-14.
