Both teams play at a respectable pace but the Grizzlies bring an elite defense to this matchup ranking 4th in defensive rating while only giving up 110.9 PPG over their last 10 games. The Warriors have struggled on the road all year and it’s mainly been because of their defense but this is a spot where their defense should perform better as they get a Grizzlies team who’s without their best player and their offensive rating has been 19th during this span and their offense is 6 points per possession worse when he’s off the floor for the season. My numbers have this total set at 227.5 and the under is 15-7 in the last 22 matchups between these teams in Memphis.
Warriors- 113
Grizzlies- 115
