Key Stats
San Antonio Spurs
The San Antonio Spurs are coming off a double-digit loss on the road against the Houston Rockets, 118-106. Stephon Castle was solid with 22 points, seven rebounds, five assists, and three steals while shooting 9/22 from the floor. De’Aaron Fox was dreadful in the loss. Fox finished with only seven points, three rebounds, and three assists while shooting 3/12 from the floor. With a record of 24-33 on the season, the San Antonio Spurs are in 13th place in the Western Conference. Maybe next season, with a healthy roster, the Spurs can be one of the surprising teams in the NBA.
Defensively, the Spurs are a middle-of-the-pack team. For the season, they are ranked 19th in points allowed per game, 13th in opponent field goal percentage, 12th in opponent 3-point field goal percentage, 1st in blocks per game, 11th in steals per game, 13th in rebounds per game, and 17th in defensive rating. In terms of their injuries, outside of Victor Wembanyama and Charles Bassey, this is a healthy team. Over their last ten games, the Spurs have a record of 3-7, including 2-8-0 against the spread in that stretch.
Memphis Grizzlies
The Memphis Grizzlies are coming off a tough loss at home against the New York Knicks 114-113. Desmond Bane was excellent despite the loss. Bane finished with 24 points and 12 rebounds while shooting 9/17, including 0/4 from three. Ja Morant finished with a team-high 25 points and seven assists. Rookie Zach Edey had a double-double with 10 points and 11 rebounds and was a +5 when he was on the floor. With a record of 38-21 on the season, the Grizzlies are currently in 3rd place in the Western Conference.
The Grizzlies’ defense is elite. For the season, they are ranked 25th in points allowed per game, 4th in opponent field goal percentage, 8th in opponent 3-point field goal percentage, 4th in blocks per game, 8th in steals per game, 2nd in rebounds per game, and 9th in defensive rating. In regards to their injuries, Desmond Bane, Ja Morant, Brandon Clarke, and Luke Kennard are all listed as questionable for this game at home. Over their last ten games, Memphis has a record of 5-5, including 3-6-1 against the spread in that timeframe.
Prediction
The Memphis Grizzlies will defeat the San Antonio Spurs tonight and cover the seven-point spread in this game. The Spurs have not been the same since Wemby’s injury and are on a downward spiral. Meanwhile, the Grizzlies have been one of the best teams in the NBA all season long and are a dominant defensive team. I expect Jaren Jackson Jr. to dominate this game on both ends of the court. The Memphis Grizzlies will defend their home court and cruise to a double-digit win over the San Antonio Spurs.
Final Pick
Memphis Grizzlies -7.5 (-112)
