Portland Trail Blazers vs Memphis Grizzlies Prediction & Betting Tips - NBA
by Joseph King | in NBA Predictions
The surprise Portland Trail Blazers will look to continue their hot start to the season when they take on a stuttering Memphis Grizzlies team at the Moda Center for this NBA matchup. Portland stormed out to a 5-1 start on the year and bounced back after losing their first game of the season against the Heat with a 125-111 home win over the Rockets their last time out. On the other side, Memphis has had an up-and-down start after many expected the young Grizzlies to build on their success from last season and potentially even win the West. The Grizzlies are 4-3 on the season and come into this matchup following a 121-105 loss to the Jazz.

Portland Trail Blazers - Memphis Grizzlies: Form Analysis
The Grizzlies will look to put an end to a two game losing streak ahead of their trip to Portland, both suffered away from home at the hands of the Utah Jazz. Making things even more complicated for Memphis is the fact that they will be playing their fourth consecutive road game before they head back home for a matchup against the Hornets on Friday. Memphis are 2-0 in front of the home fans this season but just 2-3 away from home. They’ll face a tough task in this one against a Portland team that not many expected to make waves this year. The Blazers have managed to prove the critics wrong so far and will look to push their home record to 4-1 with another win at the Moda Center.

Portland Trail Blazers & Memphis Grizzlies Squad Analysis
Both teams are dealing with key injuries ahead of this clash – the Grizzlies will be without key defensive anchor Jaren Jackson Jr while the hosts are without their all-pro point guard Damian Lillard. Lillard will miss his second consecutive game with an injured calf and the 11th-year pro is undoubtedly the heart and soul of the squad as well as being the team’s leading scorer, averaging 31 points per game through the first five games. However, the emergence of Anfernee Simons as the team’s second option (averaging 20.5 points per game this season) as well as a shrewd offseason acquisition in Jerami Grant (15.7 points per game) means the Blazers should be able to hold down the fort until the return of their star player.
Portland Trail Blazers - Memphis Grizzlies Key Points
- The Grizzlies have the second worst team defensive rating in the league at 119.1 while the Blazers rank ninth at 110.5.
- The Grizzlies have given up 120 points or more in five of their seven games so far this season.
- Portland is 4-2 both against the spread and straight up against Memphis in their last six meetings.

Our Portland Trail Blazers vs Memphis Grizzlies Prediction
We’re going to back the Portland Trail Blazers on the +4.5 point spread to keep this one close. Both sides are missing key pieces and while Lillard is of course a huge hole to fill for Portland, Memphis has been reeling on the defensive side of the ball without Jackson Jr. Simons and Grant should be able to provide enough offense against this struggling Memphis defense to keep the game close in a game that should come down to the wire.
All tips are fully researched and given in good faith, but profits cannot be guaranteed.
