Brooklyn Nets vs Memphis Grizzlies Prediction
The Brooklyn Nets are not a good basketball team, they just got blown out by the Pistons, and they’re on the end of a back-to-back. The Memphis Grizzlies are dealing with a laundry list of injuries, but they’re still finding ways to win games and the offense still shows up. The Grizzlies will have the best player on the court. I’ll lay the chalk with the road team.
