The 2023–24 Memphis Grizzlies season was the 29th season of the franchise in the National Basketball Association (NBA) and 23rd in Memphis, Tennessee.

The Grizzlies did not have Ja Morant for the first 25 games of the season (including the 2023 NBA In-Season Tournament period) as the NBA had suspended him for a second instance of being caught with holding a gun while being recorded on video for social media.[1][2] Steven Adams did not play for the Grizzlies before being traded to the Houston Rockets due to a PCL injury to his right knee.[3][4]

The Grizzlies lost their first six games to start the season and were the last team to win their first game, winning theirs on November 5, 2023. The team had a 6–19 record by the time Morant returned to play, but he would only play in nine games before he was ruled out for the remainder of the season on January 8 after suffering a labral tear in his right shoulder.[5] In addition to Morant and Adams, starter Desmond Bane and roster additions Marcus Smart and Derrick Rose also missed significant time due to injuries.[6][7] As many as thirteen of the Grizzlies' 18 rostered players were unable to play due to injuries, leading the NBA to grant the team three hardship roster spots.[8][9] In total, they ran out over 50 different starting lineups accounting for 33 different players suiting up while those not healthy missed a combined 592 games altogether.[10] It set a record for the most lineup combinations in league history since the 1970–71 season and broke their own team high of 28 players used in the 2015–16 season.[11][12] This would also be Derrick Rose's final NBA season before retiring on September 26, 2024, after 16 seasons.[13]

On March 21, 2024, the Memphis Grizzlies were eliminated from playoff contention for the first time since 2020 after their 137–116 loss to the Golden State Warriors.

The Memphis Grizzlies drew an average home attendance of 16,631 in 41 home games in the 2023-24 NBA season, the 28th highest in the league. The total attendance was 681,875.[14]

Draft

[edit]
Main article: 2023 NBA draft
Round Pick Player Position Nationality College/Club
1 25 Marcus Sasser SG/PG  United States Houston (Sr.)
2 45 GG Jackson PF/C  United States South Carolina (Fr.)
2 56 Tarik Biberović SF/SG  Bosnia and Herzegovina /  Turkey Turkey Fenerbahçe

The Grizzlies had one first-round pick and two second-round picks entering the draft.[15]

GG Jackson, a former five-star recruit, fell to the second round and took advantage of ample opportunity amidst the team's injury woes. He was later recognized as the first player not yet in his twenties to be named to an All-Rookie Team who was also not a first-round pick.[16] Jackson's 14.6 points per game placed him 4th in the rookie class, buoyed by a highlight 44-point outburst on April 14 that was a franchise rookie record.[17]

In-Season Tournament

[edit]
Main article: 2023 NBA In-Season Tournament

This was the first regular season where all the NBA teams competed in a mid-season tournament setting due to the implementation of the 2023 NBA In-Season Tournament.[18][19] During the in-season tournament period, the Grizzlies competed in Group A of the Western Conference, which included the Phoenix Suns, the Los Angeles Lakers, the Utah Jazz, and the Portland Trail Blazers. Throughout this period of time, they were without Ja Morant playing for them due to a suspension he had relating to another gun incident earlier in 2023, as well as without Steven Adams due to a season-ending injury. After three straight losses to the Trail Blazers, Jazz, and Lakers, the Grizzlies were automatically eliminated from in-season tournament contention, being the first team out at that time.
