The Spurs will play their third game in four nights and the second leg of a back-to-back.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>The potential return of third-leading scorer Desmond Bane should provide another boost for Memphis. Bane missed three games due to health and safety protocols, which had a huge impact on a team that was already missing Dillon Brooks and Kyle Anderson on the wing. Bane is averaging 17.7 ppg while shooting 42 percent from behind the arc and it\u2019s no surprise the Grizzlies\u2019 offense is 4.4 points per 100 possessions better with him on the court (+114.4) vs. off (110.2).\u00a0<\/p>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" width=\"1024\" height=\"682\" src=\"https:\/\/nypost.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2022\/01\/BASKETBALL-NBA-MEM-CHI_-e1643162599478.jpg?quality=90&amp;strip=all&amp;w=1024\" alt=\"Grizzles guard Desmond Bane (22) shoots the ball as Bulls forward Alfonzo McKinnie, right, defends during the first half at FedExForum.\" class=\"wp-image-20968571\" srcset=\"https:\/\/nypost.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2022\/01\/BASKETBALL-NBA-MEM-CHI_-e1643162599478.jpg?quality=90&amp;strip=all&amp;w=1535 1536w, https:\/\/nypost.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2022\/01\/BASKETBALL-NBA-MEM-CHI_-e1643162599478.jpg?quality=90&amp;strip=all 1024w, https:\/\/nypost.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2022\/01\/BASKETBALL-NBA-MEM-CHI_-e1643162599478.jpg?quality=90&amp;strip=all&amp;w=512 512w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\"\/><figcaption>Desmond Bane<\/figcaption><figcaption><span class=\"credit\">Petre Thomas\/USA TODAY Sports<\/span><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>The Spurs defense allows 111.4 points per 100 possessions, which ranks 20th in the NBA.
