The Brooklyn Nets head to Memphis, Tennessee, to face the Grizzlies at the FedEx Forum tonight. This will be their second back-to-back nights on the floor.
Brooklyn Nets News
The Brooklyn Nets took a tough loss last night against the Denver Nuggets after an intense overtime battle. The final score was 144-139, and we have to say that the Nets had their chances to win but blew each one.
With 28 points and 14 assists, Dennis Schroder was the best player in the home team. He had help from Cam Thomas with 26 and Cameron Johnson with 20 points.
Memphis Grizzlies News
Turning to the Memphis Grizzlies, there’s some uncertainty about the lineup, with Ja Morant and Zach Edey both listed as questionable for the matchup.
The Grizzlies currently have a 2-2 record, having secured wins over the Jazz and the Magic yet failing against the Rockets and the Bulls. The latter was their previous event, which they lost 126-123. What makes this match a must-win for Taylor Jenkins and the crew is that it’s third in a row at home, and they have already lost one.
Brooklyn Nets vs. Memphis Grizzlies Head to Head
These teams met twice the previous year because they weren’t in the same conference. On both occasions, the guests won 111-86 Nets in Memphis and 106-102 Grizzlies in New York.
Brooklyn Nets vs. Memphis Grizzlies Betting Tip
The Grizzlies have those problems with injured players, but they are still massive favorites here. Even without Morant (who might play, after all), this team has more quality than Brooklyn; plus, we have to take into consideration that the guests are tired, having played overtime last night and traveled all the way to Tennessee from the East Coast after that. So we take the Grizzlies to cover an 8.5 spread.
