The Memphis Grizzlies face a tough task when they take the court for the second half of a back-to-back against the Pacific Division-leading Sacramento Kings. Domantas Sabonis and De’Aaron Fox from the Kings, one of the league’s most potent offensive duos, take on Ja Morant and Jaren Jackson Jr., who is a candidate for NBA Defensive Player of the Year. This game will surely provide an exciting matchup to witness.
These two teams have already faced each other three times this season with the Grizzlies winning 2 of the 3 games, including one hosted in Sacramento.
In terms of injuries, both teams are healthy and ready to go. Something to consider on sacramento’s side, the Kings are 0-7 against the spread in their last 7 games versus a team with a winning record of over 60%. Also, the Grizzlies are 4-0 against the spread in the last 4 meetings in Sacramento.
That said, I’m taking the Memphis Grizzlies here at -1 for my free pick of the day.
