Memphis Grizzlies 2025-26 NBA Betting Lines
The Memphis Grizzlies seem poised for a big 2025-26 season after a strong summer of offseason improvements. An intriguing new head coach adds to the excitement. Memphis is coming off a playoff campaign, but there is the belief that much more is possible. After missing most of 2023-24, Ja Morant was able to play in enough games this past season to get the Memphis Grizzlies into the play-in round. Last year, his absence cost the Grizzlies a postseason bid. However, the Grizzlies limped into the postseason after having to make a coaching change. Memphis fired Taylor Jankins for allegedly losing the locker room and having tactical disagreements with the front office on the offense. Also, it was said that Jenkins did not connect with Morant. Tuomas Iisalo takes command of the bench this upcoming season.

Off-Season Moves for 2025-26
Key additions: Ty Jerome, Kentavious Caldwell-Pope, Cedric Coward, Jock Landale
Key subtractions: Desmond Bane, Luke Kennard, Jay Huff, Marvin Bagley III
The Grizzlies traded Desmond Bane, their third-best player, for Kentavious Caldwell-Pope and the rights to four first-round draft picks, which is a lot more than anyone thought they could get for a non-All-Star. It is a forward-thinking move that gives Memphis more flexibility to build around Ja Morant and Jaren Jackson Jr. (who, along with Memphis teammate Santi Aldama, received a healthy raise this summer).
Meanwhile, the Grizzlies added Ty Jerome, a Sixth Man of the Year candidate last season, to reestablish their depth at the point guard position behind Ja Morant. A lot of teams did a lot worse in free agency. The same goes for the draft, where Memphis traded up to select Cedric Coward with the No. 11 overall pick.
The Grizzlies might take a step back in a loaded West after Bane, but long-term, Memphis was wise to get four first-round picks in return, including a coveted 2026 pick most likely from the Phoenix Suns. Adding Jerome on a value contract helps replace Bane's shooting and shot creation, and the Grizzlies were able to sign Jackson Jr. to an extension that pays him less than he could have made next summer as an unrestricted free agent.
Key Players
PG Ja Morant averaged 22.6 points and 7.3 assists per game in 2025. Morant was the 2nd overall pick of the 2019 NBA Draft out of Murray State by the Grizzlies. He is a 2-time NBA All-Star.
In 2023-24, PF Jaren Jackson Jr. averaged 22.5 points and 5.5 rebounds per game. The Grizzlies selected Jackson as the fourth overall pick in the 2018 NBA Draft out of Michigan State. He is a two-time NBA All-Star, including this past year, and was the 2023 NBA Defensive Player of the Year. This past year, Jackson averaged 22.2 points and 5.6 rebounds per contest.
Head Coach
Last year, head coach Taylor Jenkins was fired with nine games remaining in the season. Tuomas Iisalo, a top Memphis assistant, became the interim HC. Iisalo, a native of Finland where he played professionally and coached, had the interim tag removed for the season ahead.

Memphis Grizzlies History
Few teams in the NBA are more anonymous than the Memphis Grizzlies. Since joining the NBA as an expansion team in Vancouver, where they operated from 1995 through 2001, Memphis has never won a championship of any kind. They were one of the worst teams of all time in their six seasons in Canada, never winning more than 23 games in a season before their move to Memphis.
Since moving to Memphis for the 2001-02 season, the Grizzlies have been more successful. They made the playoffs for the first time during the 2004-05 season and for three straight seasons.
The 2010s were the most successful period for the Memphis Grizzlies. The Grit and Grind Grizzlies went to the playoffs for seven straight seasons, and they were a tough out in the playoffs with veterans like Zach Randolph and Tony Allen and young center Marc Gasol. Their most successful run came during the 2012-13 season when the Grizzlies knocked off the Los Angeles Clippers and Oklahoma City Thunder to reach the Western Conference Finals. Unfortunately, they were swept in the conference finals by the San Antonio Spurs.
Memphis is in a position to challenge for supremacy in the Western Conference once again with a new collection of young, talented players highlighted by Ja Morant. The Grizzlies went 56-26 during the 2021-22 season, and they showed that they weren’t scared of the five-time champion Golden State Warriors.
