Memphis Grizzlies vs New Orleans Pelicans Prediction & Betting Tips - NBA
by Devesh Jaganath | in NBA Predictions
The Memphis Grizzlies and New Orleans Pelicans will meet at the FedExForum in the NBA on Friday evening. The Grizz (12-7) are fourth in the Western Conference, while the Pels (4-15) are bottom of the conference standings. To the match prediction!
The Memphis Grizzlies are starting to look like a genuine contender for the Western Conference title this season and racked up their forth straight win, blowing away the Pistons 131-111 on Thursday.
It was an excellent team effort that got them the victory, with Marcus Smart picking up 25 points and five rebounds off the bench, while Jake LaRavia and Scotty Pippen Jr added 19 points apiece.
The Grizzlies are now the second-highest scoring team in the NBA (121.0 PPG), and are 14th on the defensive end, allowing 112.7 PPG.
Meanwhile, the short-handed New Orleans Pelicans have been in a rut recently and conceded their sixth straight defeat, losing to the Raptors 119-93 on Thursday.
CJ McCollum and Dejounte Murray returned to the lineup and got 19 and 14 points respectively, but the team were outscored 31-17 in the third quarter and never looked likely to make up the deficit.
The Pelicans are the lowest-scoring team in the NBA this season, averaging just 103.5 points per game while they are allowing 115.3 PPG (22nd in the league).

Our Memphis Grizzlies vs New Orleans Pelicans Prediction
With six defeats in a row, it is fair to say that these are dark times for the Pelicans right now, and with there still being no definitive timescale around Zion Williamson’s return, a swift turnaround seems unlikely.
The Grizzlies notched up their fourth win on the bounce last time out and did so without Ja Morant, who should be back for this match, which does not bode well for the depleted Pels’ chances of pulling off an upset. Memphis have covered the spread in nine of their last 10, and we fancy them to do so again in this one. Our Memphis Grizzlies vs New Orleans Pelicans prediction: Memphis Grizzlies -10.5!
If your team in the Memphis Grizzlies and New Orleans Pelicans game takes a 20-point lead, you win!
