Tonight, the LA Lakers will take on the Memphis Grizzlies. After their first win of the season, the Lakers will look to build upon any momentum they kept from Sunday's game versus the Hornets. The Grizzlies sport one of the best defenses in the league, and have only lost one game all season long. The Lakers will be without Nick Young (thumb surgery), while Steve Nash & Julius Randle have both been ruled out for the season. For a more in depth summary of tonight's match up, check out the game preview: Lakers @ Grizzlies Preview. Here are tonight's projected starters:
