The Boston Celtics will visit the FedExForum in Tennessee to take on the Memphis Grizzlies on Sunday. The two teams are wrapping up their regular-season campaign with this game. Their last meeting resulted in a 120-107 Celtics victory, despite Ja Morant dropping 38 points. The Grizzlies will look to seek revenge on their home floor this time.

The 50-31 Celtics are third in the East. They are tied with the fourth-place Philadelphia 76ers and are one game behind the second-placed Milwaukee Bucks (51-30). If they lose this game and the Sixers win theirs against the Detroit Pistons (23-58), Jayson Tatum and co. will fall to fourth seed.

The Grizzlies, meanwhile, are firmly holding onto second place in the West. They are eight games behind the top seed Phoenix Suns (64-17) and four games ahead of the third-seeded Golden State Warriors (52-29). Hence, the outcome of this game won't make any difference to the standings.

With their 141-114 win against the New Orleans Pelicans (36-45) last night, the Grizzlies tied their franchise record of 56 wins. In their final game of the season, they will seek to create a new franchise record.

Ja Morant was dropping dimes and taking flight in his return to the @memgrizz.

He led #GrindCity to their 56th win of the season, tying a franchise record.
