Grizzlies vs Nets Prediction
The Nets should have Nolan Traore back in action, but they are keeping an eye on Mikel Brown Jr who is questionable with an illness, while the Grizzlies have ruled out Scotty Pippen Jr with Quinten Post and Zach Edey both listed as doubtful.
The Grizzlies will be feeling good about themselves after their massive win over the Pelicans, but it might be tricky playing on zero days’ rest against this improving Nets squad. The Nets are starting to get more production from role players like Wagner and Clowney, which makes things easier for Randle and Porter Jr., but I still prefer a play on the more consistent Grizzlies who were able to pull their starters early in last night’s blowout win.
Brooklyn Nets Betting Preview
The Brooklyn Nets are starting to turn things around as they’ve split their last six games overall, and they must be feeling pretty good about themselves after smashing the Pelicans in a 145-111 road win on Wednesday. Michael Porter Jr. and Egor Demin each scored 22 points; Julius Randle added 17 points with five assists, while Noah Clowney and Moritz Wagner each scored 16 points.
As a team, the Nets shot a healthy 57 percent from the field and 20 of 41 from the 3-point line as they swarmed the Pelicans from the very start and never looked in danger after taking a commanding 83-56 lead going into halftime. The Nets were relentless in this one as they didn’t slow down, even after pulling their starters early.
Memphis Grizzlies Betting Preview
Meanwhile, the Memphis Grizzlies have been in a rut lately as they lost four out of five games before they snapped out of it with a dominant 142-111 win over the Pelicans last night. Jerami Grant led the team with 22 points on seven of 10 shooting off the bench; Ty Jerome added 17 points with nine assists, while GG Jackson, Cam Spencer and Cedric Coward each scored 14 points.
As a team, the Grizzlies shot 48 percent from the field and 18 of 45 from the 3-point line as they jumped all over the Pelicans from the start, setting the tone with 35 points in the first quarter, and they just never took their foot off the gas, even after pulling all their starters early. The Grizzlies finished with a total of 10 players scoring at least 10 points in this balanced scoring effort.
