Â
Memphis GrizzliesÂ
Â
The Memphis Grizzlies have been in decent shape as they’ve won four of their first seven games overall and they will be gunning for a third straight victory after making light work of the 76ers in a 124-107 road win on Saturday. Jaren Jackson Jr led the team with 27 points, three steals and two blocks on 11 of 16 shooting, Jay Huff added 20 points in just 14 minutes off the bench, Ja Morant tallied 18 points with 12 assists while Santi Aldama chipped in with 10 points, 13 rebounds and four assists. As a team, the Grizzlies shot 55 percent from the field and 12 of 27 from the 3-point line as they took control of the contest with a 35-point burst in the second quarter, before they went on another run in the third quarter to push the lead out to 25 points at one stage.Â

Brooklyn NetsÂ
Â
Meanwhile, the Brooklyn Nets were starting to heat up with three wins in four games, before they fell back down to Earth with a 106-92 loss to the lowly Pistons last night. Cam Johnson led the team with 26 points on nine of 19 shooting while Cam Thomas chipped in with 17 points on six of 17 shooting, but no other player finished in double figures in scoring. As a team, the Nets shot 45 percent from the field and nine of 31 from the 3-point line as they looked to be in control when they poured in 32 points in the second quarter to take the narrow lead into halftime, but they really struggled from that point on and scored just 35 points in the second half to allow the Pistons off the hook.Â

Memphis Grizzlies vs Brooklyn Nets Prediction
Â
The Grizzlies are still shorthanded with Desmond Bane, Marcus Smart and Luke Kennard all ruled out, while the Nets are are still missing Bojan Bogdanovic and Trendon Watford. The Grizzlies are still dealing with a host of injuries just like they were last season, but they’re a team that is used to playing shorthanded as we saw in their big win over the 76ers on Saturday. The Nets were building a bit of momentum before they got stopped in their tracks by the lowly Pistons and now they are playing their second game of a back to back set against the Grizzlies. The line is short enough for this one, so I am confidently going with the Grizzlies to get the win and cover on the road.
