The Memphis Grizzlies and Milwaukee Bucks meet Wednesday in NBA action at the Fiserv Forum. We will look at this from a betting perspective and determine the best bets for this game. Here’s a Grizzlies vs Bucks prediction.

Memphis Grizzlies

The Memphis Grizzlies have been in a real funk as they’ve lost seven of their last nine games overall, but they will be feeling much better after snapping a three-game skid with a 110-108 road win over the Pistons on Monday. Jaren Jackson Jr. led the way with 40 points, seven rebounds and three assists, Luke Kennard added 19 points with eight assists while Brandon Clarke chipped in with 15 points, seven rebounds and two blocks. As a team, the Grizzlies shot 44 percent from the field and 11 of 33 from the 3-point line as they struggled to get going and had to claw their way back from a 15-point deficit, before they held the Pistons scoreless in the final 2:18 to escape with the gritty road win.

Milwaukee Bucks

Meanwhile, the Milwaukee Bucks have been in a rut as they’ve lost three of their last four games overall and they will be hoping to bounce back after getting beaten by the Wizards in a 117-113 road defeat last night. Giannis Antetekounmpo led the team with a triple-double of 35 points with 15 rebounds and 10 assists, Khris Middleton added 24 points with nine rebounds and six assists while Pat Connaughton chipped in with 15 points, eight rebounds and five assists off the bench. As a team, the Bucks shot just 43 percent from the field and 11 of 48 from the 3-point line, but this was just really a case of Antetokounmpo not getting enough support from his teammates. Brook Lopez scored just six points on three of nine shooting while Malik Beasley scored just five points on two of 13 shooting.

Milwaukee Bucks Team Facts

  • The Bucks have won 13 of their last 14 home games against teams that held a losing record.
  • The Bucks have failed to cover the spread in each of their last eight games against Western Conference opponents that held a losing record.
  • Twelve of the Bucks’ last 13 home games against Southwest Division opponents have gone OVER the total points line.

Memphis Grizzlies Team Facts

  • The Grizzlies have lost each of their last seven games against teams that held a winning record.
  • The Grizzlies have covered the spread in seven of their last eight games against the Bucks.
  • Eight of the Grizzlies’ last nine road games against opponents who are on the second leg of a back-to-back have gone OVER the total points line.

Grizzlies vs Bucks prediction

The Grizzlies are still missing a bunch of players including Desmond Bane, Marcus Smart and John Konchar, while the Bucks are still without Damian Lillard. The Bucks have been well below their best lately, and they are playing their second game of a back to back set. This could be a good spot for the Grizzlies to make a nuisance of themselves if they are focused. The Bucks should still win this one with ease, but I think the Grizzlies are playing well enough to get the cover in the end.
