Chicago Bulls vs Memphis Grizzlies Prediction
The Memphis Grizzlies are still banged up, and they’ve lost 3 of their last 5 games. The Chicago Bulls are on the end of a back-to-back, but they’re healthy for the most part, and they’re coming off a solid win over the Hawks. The Bulls have won the last four games against the Grizzlies. At home, the Bulls could win this game outright, assuming Morant is still out. He’s been upgraded to doubtful. Give me the points.
