Memphis Grizzlies vs LA Lakers Prediction
The Memphis Grizzlies continue to find ways to win games despite having key players out, but at some point that has to take a toll on the guys. At some point, the Grizzlies will pay for not having Smart, Morant, Bane and Jackson. The LA Lakers have health on their side, they’re laying decent ball, and they didn’t forget losing to the Grizzlies last week on the road. Morant said some things after that result, and I promise LeBron and others didn’t forget. With home court and he more complete team, the Lakers should roll. I’ll lay the points.
