The Memphis Grizzlies and Atlanta Hawks face off for the second and final time this season on Monday night.

The two teams faced off on December 21, 2024, where the Grizzlies won 128-112. Both teams are in a much different place now than they were in December. Atlanta has traded for Clippers star Terance Mann, while the Grizzlies have been struggling since the All-Star break.

The one matchup that fans always look forward to when these two teams face off is when Trae Young and Ja Morant share the court together. Unfortunately, there's a chance that may not happen on Monday night.

The Atlanta Hawks listed Trae Young as probable against the Memphis Grizzlies due to right Achilles tendinitis. Meanwhile, Ja Morant is listed as questionable with right shoulder soreness.
