  • The Grizzlies have failed to cover the spread in eight of their last nine games as underdogs against Eastern Conference opponents.
  • The Magic have covered the spread in each of their last three games against Western Conference opponents.

  • The Magic have lost each of their last nine games following a win.
  • The Grizzlies have won seven of their last eight games against the Magic.
  • The Magic have failed to cover the spread in each of their last 10 games following a win.
  • The underdogs have covered the spread in four of the last five games between the Grizzlies and Magic.

Total Points Facts

  • Four of the Grizzlies’ last five games have gone UNDER the total points line.

Magic vs Grizzlies Injury Report

The Magic will be without Jalen Suggs.

The Grizzlies will be without Brandon Clarke, Zach Edey, Scotty Pippen Jr., Ja Morant, and Ty Jerome.

Magic vs Grizzlies Prediction

The Grizzlies are a tough sell given their current form, injury report, and the Morant trade rumors that are getting louder. We could easily see the Grizzlies mail it in as they await a major roster shakeup. The Magic aren’t lighting the world on fire with their 15-25 ATS record, but they’re finding ways to win games, and they’ll have Wagner back.

In Germany, this is going to be a Magic pro crowd with Wagner on the court. At almost full strength, the Magic should roll in this spot against a Grizzlies side that has endless banged up bodies and distractions. I’ll lay the points.
