The Grizzlies are 18-7-1 ATS in their last 26 games as an underdog and 38-18-1 ATS in their last 57 games overall. The Warriors are 6-2 ATS in their last 8 home games and 1-6 ATS in their last 7 games overall. The under is 7-3 in Grizzlies last 10 road games. The over is 8-3 in Warriors last 11 overall. The Grizzlies are 6-1 ATS in the last 7 meetings.
It would be easy to say the Golden State Warriors are the healthier, more experienced team at home, and they'll close things out here. However, we've seen back to back games where the Grizzlies have controlled the tempo, frustrated Golden State defensively, and you can argue the Grizz should have won game 4. It's weird to hear people say the Grizzlies are better without Ja Morant, but there's no doubt the defensive effort has been greatly improved. This line is a bit disrespectful toward the Grizzlies and what we've seen the last two games. Give me the road underdog.
