The Memphis Grizzlies and Philadelphia 76ers meet Sunday in NBA action at the Wells Fargo Center.

The Memphis Grizzlies look for a win after splitting their last six games. The Memphis Grizzlies are averaging 111.8 points on 46.2 percent shooting and allowing 111.3 points on 46.6 percent shooting. Ja Morant is averaging 19.3 points and 7.4 assists while Jonas Valanciunas is averaging 16.2 points and 12.5 rebounds. Dillon Brooks is the third double-digit scorer and Kyle Anderson is grabbing 5.8 rebounds. The Memphis Grizzlies are shooting 35.1 percent from beyond the arc and 78 percent from the free throw line. The Memphis Grizzlies are allowing 36.8 percent shooting from deep and are grabbing 46.2 rebounds per game.

The Philadelphia 76ers look for a win after winning six of their last eight games. The Philadelphia 76ers are averaging 114.3 points on 47.8 percent shooting and allowing 109.1 points on 45.1 percent shooting. Joel Embiid is averaging 29.9 points and 11.5 rebounds while Tobias Harris is averaging 20.5 points and 3.6 assists. Ben Simmons is the third double-digit scorer and Shake Milton is dishing 3.1 assists. The Philadelphia 76ers are shooting 37 percent from beyond the arc and 77.4 percent from the free throw line. The Philadelphia 76ers are allowing 36.2 percent shooting from deep and are grabbing 46.2 rebounds per game.

The Grizzlies are 6-0 ATS in their last 6 games playing on 1 days rest and 7-1 ATS in their last 8 games overall. The 76ers are 34-15-2 ATS in their last 51 home games and 2-5-1 ATS in their last 8 games playing on 0 days rest. The over is 5-2 in Grizzlies last 7 overall. The under is 5-1 in 76ers last 6 overall. The Grizzlies are 0-4 ATS in the last 4 meetings in Philadelphia.

The Memphis Grizzlies have the rest advantage and have played some of their best ball on the road this season, but they’re an inconsistent team overall and not a club I’m thrilled to back against some of the better teams in the league. The Philadelphia 76ers may be on the end of a back to back, but they’re as healthy as they’ve been in a while and they win at home by an average of eight points. I need more buckets to consider the Grizzlies here. Give me the 76ers.
