Memphis Grizzlies vs New Orleans Pelicans
11:00am, FedEx Forum

After downing the Hornets by 12 on Thursday, the Grizzlies are now preparing for two more favourable home games with the Pels and Jazz in town this weekend.  

Memphis is tied for first in the league in average points scored (123) over its last 10 game stretch, which comes as no surprise given they still rank first in pace.  

Surprisingly, the Pelicans are one of worst teams in the league this year, particularly in the first game of a back to back where they’ve managed only one win from seven tries all season. 

Looking ahead to a quick road trip to Charlotte on Sunday, this is an awful spot for New Orleans against a Memphis side hoping to improve its spot in the standings. 

Tip: Back the Grizzlies to Cover the Line  

Player Pick  

In terms of points, Ja Morant’s last five games against the Pelicans look like this: 32, 34, 31, 27, 25. 

For whatever reason, he’s felt comfortable shooting threes against New Orleans, putting up four in his two games against the Pels this season.
