Golden State Warriors vs Memphis Grizzlies Prediction 10/23/26 NBA Picks Today

The Memphis Grizzlies will be eager to earn a second straight victory after making light work of the Jazz in a 123-103 home win on Wednesday. Ty Jerome led the team with 45 points, seven rebounds and six assists on 17 of 25 shooting, Jerami Grant added 15 points off the bench while Jaylen Wells chipped in with 12 points. As a team, the Grizzlies shot 47 percent from the field and 13 of 34 from the 3-point line as they rode the hot hand of Jerome to an early lead and they just never took their foot off the gas despite a poor shooting night from Cameron Boozer shot just two of 15 from the field for his seven points.

Meanwhile, the Golden State Warriors will be hoping for a better effort after getting blown off the floor by the Lakers in a 127-105 loss on Wednesday. Stephen Curry got off to a rapid start with 12 points in the first quarter to finish with 23 points for the game, Yaxel Lendeborg and Gui Santos each scored 12 points while Brandon WIlliams chipped in with 14 points. As a team, the Warriors shot just 41 percent from the field and eight of 36 from the 3-point line as they struggled to contain the Lakers from the start and never looked a chance after getting outscored in the second and third quarters by a combined 68-35.

The Grizzlies are still missing Cedric Coward with Isaiah Stewart listed as questionable, while the Warriors are still without Jimmy Butler III, Moses Moody and Kristaps Porzingis. The Grizzlies were able to start their season with a massive win thanks to a big game from Jerome and they would love to keep it going against a Warriors squad who didn’t look good at all in their first outing. I get why the Warriors are favorites at home and I am sure they will perform better, but they are still missing a bunch of key players which makes them vulnerable and I think this young Grizzlies squad can take advantage in this spot.
