On this week's episode of the Next Gen Podcast, Bryson Wright and Alex Winton open with their reactions to the Grizzlies' win in Atlanta. Talking about Ja Morant's First start, Desmond Bane’s big game, and Jaren Jackson Jr.’s possible block of the year.
Then, we discuss how Luke Kennard has been playing, including his all-time great shooting performance against the Rockets. We also discuss how his addition to the team has greatly helped the Grizzlies in the half-court offense, which has struggled at times this season.
Finally, we discuss the current NBA standings and whether or not the Grizzlies have a legitimate chance at the one seed. Even if they could get it, would it actually lead to a tougher road in the playoffs? All that and more on this week's episode!
