The red-hot Memphis Grizzlies take on the Indiana Pacers tonight for the first game in their regular season series. Memphis is the Western Conference's hottest team with a five-game winning streak. What's even more fortunate is the fact that the team is getting healthier and healthier as the wins pile up.

Grizzlies rookie Zach Edey is nearing a return to the court from a sprained left ankle suffered on Nov. 17 against the Nuggets.
