Clippers at Grizzlies picks and predictions
Prediction
Clippers 114, Grizzlies 109
Moneyline
PASS.
I like the Clippers (-450) to pick up the win vs. this inferior Grizzlies squad, but they are not worth the risk of betting on as such heavy favorites. Bet on the spread and/or total instead.
Against the spread
LEAN GRIZZLIES +9.5 (-110).
Memphis has covered the spread in each of its last 3 outings and is 6-4 ATS in the last 10 games. The Grizzlies are also 7-3 ATS in their last 10 matchups vs. LA. The Clippers are only 1-4 ATS in their last 5 outings.
This is only a lean because the Clippers have been the better ATS team this season.
Over/Under
LEAN UNDER 223.5 (-110).
The Under is 3-2 in LA’s last 5 games and is 30-24 for the Clippers this season. For Memphis, the Under is 31-24-1 on the season. The Under has also hit in 3 of the last 4 LA-Memphis matchups.
This is only a lean because the Over and Under have been even for both teams as of late.
