The Memphis Grizzlies have been ice-cold lately as they’ve lost seven of their last eight games and they will be hoping to snap a three-game skid after getting embarrassed by the Celtics in a 131-95 road defeat on Wednesday. Jaren Jackson Jr led the team in scoring with just 18 points in 23 minutes of action, Santi Aldama added 14 points while Vince Williams Jr and Cedric Coward each scored 12 points.

With the game out of reach early, the Grizzlies decided to rest their starters early and allow players like Cam Spencer to play 29 minutes off the bench.

Memphis Grizzlies vs Cleveland Cavaliers Prediction
The Grizzlies have ruled out Cedric Coward and Brandon Clarke, but they have upgraded Zach Edey to questionable for this one, while the Cavaliers are still missing Max Strus and Darius Garland. Things went from bad to worse for the Grizzlies, who are coming into this one fresh off a 36-point defeat to the Celtics, while the Cavaliers were beaten by the red-hot Raptors in a rare defeat on Thursday. This would have been quite the matchup a couple of seasons ago, but the Grizzlies are spiralling at the moment and it’s no surprise to see them as heavy underdogs on the road. The Cavaliers were uncharacteristically poor in their last outing, but I expect them to steady the ship with a win here against this struggling Grizzlies squad on the verge of a roster shakeup.
