Minnesota Timberwolves vs Memphis Grizzlies Prediction & Picks - NBA
by Travis Pulver | in NBA Picks
The Minnesota Timberwolves will try to get back on the right side of the scoreboard tonight when they take on the Grizzlies at the FedEx Forum in Memphis. Tipoff is scheduled for 2:30 p.m.ET. Memphis opened as a 4-point favorite, but the line has shifted to 3.5 points at some sportsbooks.
Minnesota hosted Memphis at the Target Center just a few days ago on Jan. 11. The Timberwolves were 1.5-point favorites in that game but ended up losing to the Grizzlies 127-125. They took a four-point lead into the fourth quarter and led by six, 119-113, late in the period. Memphis closed to within two, 125-123, with about a minute and a half left. A pair of baskets by Ja Morant locked down the win for Memphis.
Morant is questionable for this game. The Grizzlies have already ruled out Cam Spencer, Marcus Smart, Vince Williams Jr., and GG Jackson II. Minnesota will not have Terrence Shannon Jr. available, and Donte DiVincenzo is considered day-to-day.
Both teams have gone 5-5 in their last ten games. But while Minnesota is coming off a loss to the Cleveland Cavaliers, Memphis won its last two (both vs. the Spurs in San Antonio).

Our Minnesota Timberwolves vs Memphis Grizzlies Prediction
The Timberwolves are a top-five defensive team, allowing an average of 108 points per game this season. Memphis, on the other hand, has the league’s No. 1 scoring offense at 123.4 points per game. But Minnesota has not been playing great defense of late, allowing four of their last five opponents to score 115+ points. Memphis scored 115+ in their last five games. As good as Minnesota’s defense may be, it is not playing at a level at the moment where we can expect them to beat the No. 1 scoring offense on the road.
Our Timberwolves vs. Grizzlies Pick: Memphis -3.5
