Grizzlies Are Losing by 20.4 a Game Over Their Last 10
Memphis has fallen off a cliff on the scoreboard, and the last 10 games look nothing like the season as a whole.
The Grizzlies are being outscored by 20.4 points per game over their last 10 games of the 2025-26 season, as of April 12, 2026. For the season as a whole, Memphis is being outscored by 6 points per game. The gap between those two numbers is the story. A team that was competitive across 82 games has turned into a team getting blown out on a nightly basis.
A drop from a season margin of -6 to a 10-game margin of -20.4 is not a small dip. It means the average loss over this stretch has been more than three times worse than the average result across the full season. Point margin over 10 games reflects how a team is performing right now, not how it performed in November or December. When that number moves this far from the season figure, it says the recent games are being decided well before the fourth quarter.
For this trend to hold, Memphis needs to keep losing games by wide margins over its next several outings. That would push the season margin further into negative territory and confirm that the -20.4 mark is not a rough patch but a new level for this team. For the trend to change, the Grizzlies need to close games that they have been losing big, cutting the margin per game back down toward the -6 season mark or better.
The two numbers side by side, -6 for the season and -20.4 for the last 10, mark where this team stood on April 12, 2026. What happens over the next stretch of games will decide which number ends up mattering more when the season is finished.
