Tiger Basketball Podcast

The Memphis basketball team closed the 2021-22 regular season by winning 10 of its last 11 games. The Tigers needed every single one of them − and then some, ultimately − in order to reach the NCAA Tournament. Almost a year later, Memphis might need to pull off something similar, because Penny Hardaway's team is right back on the bubble. The Tigers are 4-3 in their last seven games and missed prime opportunities to distance themselves from the bubble, losing by 3 points at Alabama and falling in double overtime at UCF earlier this week. On this week's episode of the Tiger Basketball Podcast, beat writer Jason Munz and columnist Mark Giannotto break down the fallout of Memphis' most recent loss, offer some insight into what the future might hold for the injured Alex Lomax, give their thoughts on the Johnathan Lawson and Kaodirichi Akobundu-Ehiogu debate and preview Sunday's Temple game.
