Indiana Pacers vs Memphis Grizzlies Prediction

There are a lot of banged up bodies on both teams, so nothing would surprise me in this matchup. However, despite being on the end of a back-to-back, if the Grizzlies aren’t eager to rebound from that effort last night against the Heat, something is wrong. The Heat set a franchise scoring record in the first half and scored 146 points total. It was embarrassing. The Pacers are down 3 key rotation guys in Haliburton, TJ, and Nembhard. This is a gut check game for the Grizzlies. Lose this, and I’m reaching for a red flag early. Give me the Grizzlies.
