The Grizzlies are entering this game with a 35-17 record overall this season and they are 14-11 in their road games this season where they will be in this game.

Ja Morant led the team in assists in that game with 7 while Desmond Bane led the team in rebounds with 9. They were 44.4% from the field, 42.9% from 3-point range, and 71.8% from the free throw line with their shots in that game. Their offense is averaging 123.5 PPG and their defense is allowing their opponents to average 115.6 PPG against them. The Grizzlies have an ATS record of 34-18 this season and their O/U record is 33-19.

The Suns are entering this game with a 26-26 record overall this season and they are 16-10 in their home games this season where they will be in this game.

The Suns have an ATS record of 18-33-1 this season and their O/U record is 26-26.

The current betting odds have the Grizzlies listed as a 3.5 point favorite in this game according to Draftkings Sportsbook. The Grizzlies have looked really good in their games this season with their 35-17 record overall which has them right near the top of the West with one of the best records in the entire NBA. They have been a good road team this year with their 14-11 road record, and they have been hot lately too. Meanwhile, the Suns haven't looked great in their games this season with their 26-26 record overall which has them in the bottom half of the West. They have looked better on their home court with their 16-10 home record, but they haven't looked good lately. They are only 5-5 in their last 10 games and coming off a loss to the Nuggets in their last one. They are also in the last play-in spot at the moment, right on the cusp of being on the outside looking in. The Grizzlies are also coming off a loss in their last one and they didn't look good in that loss at all, but it was against the Thunder who have one of the best records in the NBA this season. The Grizzlies have also looked really good lately with their 8-2 record in their last 10 games so they will be looking to bounce back in this one against a Suns team that has been really up and down this season. The best way to place a bet here is on the Grizzlies to cover the spread in this game.

"This is my first time seeing them since they became good. Obviously it's learning for me. For us as a whole, of course. After the game, pretty much just talking with each other, we know what we've got to do. We lost by whatever we lost by and we weren't ourselves the whole night. So that's a positive for us." - Ja Morant after their loss against the Thunder in their game on Saturday.

“We feel like it’s probably very short term. I think the two days without a game will probably be very helpful.” - Mike Budenholzer on the injury to Kevin Durant.
