NBA releases Memphis Grizzlies' 2023-24 schedule: Full list of games, national TV slots
The wait is over. The Memphis Grizzlies' 2023-24 schedule is here.
This was one of the more anticipated schedule releases in franchise history for many reasons. The biggest one is Ja Morant's return after his 25-game suspension for conduct detrimental to the league.
Memphis also parted ways with two of its longest tenured players in Tyus Jones and Dillon Brooks. Both were key contributors the past four seasons and will likely be greeted warmly when they return to Memphis.
What a difference a year makes. Around this time last season, Memphis was coming off a 56-win season and widely regarded as one of the league's buzz teams. That resulted in it being awarded 18 national TV games at the time.
With Morant's suspension and a first-round exit, expectations on the Grizzlies have cooled off a little bit. FanDuel Sportsbook has the Grizzlies' over-under set at 46.5 wins this season, even though Memphis topped 50 wins in each of the past two seasons.
