This game figures to rank high on the intrigue scale, thanks in large part to the return (coming off the bench) of Ja Morant from his 8-game suspension. As one player comes in, another sits down as Dillon Brooks is out tonight due to being over the technical foul threshold.

I figure most of the focus will be on Memphis tonight, but hopefully Houston can take advantage of a team that has experienced a month full of turmoil.
