Mavericks vs Grizzlies Injury Report

The Mavs will be without Dereck Lively II, Kai Jones, Daniel Gafford, Kyrie Irving, Anthony Davis, Jaden Hardy, Dante Exum, and PJ Washington. Caleb Martin is questionable with a hip injury.

The Memphis Grizzlies will be without Jaren Jackson Jr., Zyon Pullin, and Yuki Zawamura. John Konchar and Santi Aldama are questionable for the Grizzlies.

Mavericks vs Grizzlies Prediction

The Grizzlies should win this game comfortably because the Mavs have their entire roster on the injury list. However, the Grizzlies have been in a slump these last few weeks, and that includes four straight losses and five straight failed covers. The Grizzlies are 1-8-1 ATS in their last 10 games. I’m not getting the warm and fuzzy from the Grizzlies, and I have no interest in laying double-digit chalk on the road. The Mavs have their issues and there’s a black cloud hanging over Dallas. It’s still the points or pass for me on Friday night.
