Game: Los Angeles Lakers vs Memphis Grizzlies
Time: 8:00 PM ET
Memphis is a legit contender, and despite their head coach being fired, I don’t see that slowing them down. This is still a well-built team that knows how to compete at a high level, and they’ll be motivated to make a statement.
Meanwhile, the Lakers haven’t been playing well lately, struggling with inconsistency on both ends of the floor. They’ve had trouble finding rhythm, and going on the road against a locked-in Grizzlies squad won’t make things any easier.
Memphis should control the pace and take advantage of the Lakers’ struggles. I expect them to handle business and cover the short spread.
My prediction: Grizzlies -2 -110
