The Milwaukee Bucks look to continue their climb back up the Eastern Conference standings as they visit a Memphis Grizzlies team with 17 straight losses to their name.

While many of their playoff rivals are mired in a stretch of schedule that sees them matching up with each other, the Milwaukee Bucks have a chance to get back on track by feasting on lesser opposition.

That started on Friday in successful, albeit unconvincing fashion against the New York Knicks, and Monday’s trip to Memphis should just add further momentum to a Milwaukee team that’s been lacking some since the All-Star break.

The Memphis Grizzlies have the NBA’s worst record at present, but even that statement doesn’t quite do justice to how bad things are for them at present.

The Grizzlies have just one win in their last 20 games, and are in the middle of a 17-game losing streak.

Injuries to key players like Mike Conley and Tyreke Evans certainly haven’t helped the Memphis cause, but even beyond that there’s a sense of morale being incredibly low among the Grizzlies.

With all of that in mind, let’s take a closer look at the action ahead, and how things might play out for the Bucks on Monday night.
