The Grizzlies are 9-4 ATS in their last 13 games as a road underdog and 5-12 ATS in their last 17 Thursday games. The Warriors are 6-1 ATS in their last 7 home games and 8-2 ATS in their last 10 games overall. The over is 8-0 in Grizzlies last 8 overall. The under is 4-1 in Warriors last 5 overall. The Grizzlies are 3-8 ATS in the last 11 meetings in Golden State.
The Memphis Grizzlies are on the end of a back to back and this is where tired legs usually creep up, especially when they're still without one of their best players in Brooks. The Golden State Warriors are rested, at home and off to a fabulous start, mainly on the offensive side. Curry is in MVP form and the Warriors are a top-10 offense in nearly every major category. Bad schedule spot for the Grizzlies. I'll lay the reasonable number with the Warriors at home.
