MEMPHIS, Tenn. – The Memphis Grizzlies are officially returning to their holiday tradition by hosting the Houston Rockets at the FedExForum for the 2027 MLK Day matchup.  

The Grizzlies missed last year’s matchup due to playing in an overseas game. Now the franchise is back in the lineup and reclaiming their signature national spotlight at the NBA’s MLK Day showcase.

The MLK Day consists of prime-time matchups that both stand as fierce rivalries and a meaningful community tribute to honor the legacy of Dr. Martin Luther King Jr.
