The Grizzlies are 10.5-point favorites in a game that will be shown on NBA TV. Memphis has an implied win probability of 84% as -525 moneyline favorites.
The Warriors’ 123-115 loss to the Wizards on Sunday night in Washington was their second in a row and fifth in six games. The Grizzlies are on a four-game winning streak and have won eight of nine after pasting the Milwaukee Bucks 127-102 at home on Saturday.
Warriors-Grizzlies Injury Report
Grizzlies star Ja Morant (knee), who sits fourth in the NBA MVP odds, will miss his fifth straight game. Though Morant is sixth in the NBA in scoring with 27.6 points a game, Memphis is 17-2 this season without him.

Killian Tillie (knee) is also out for the Grizzlies. Brandon Clarke (hip) and Jaren Jackson Jr. (thigh) are questionable.
The Warriors will also be without their best player as Stephen Curry (foot) will sit out his fifth game in a row.
Also missing for Golden State will be Andre Iguodala (back) and James Wiseman (knee), who has a longer-term injury. Coach Steve Kerr is expected to rest Draymond Green, Otto Porter Jr., and Klay Thompson on the second night of a back-to-back.
A perennial DPOY candidate, Green once again sits among the top-ten favorites in the NBA Defensive Player of the Year odds.
Golden State’s futures odds have faded significantly since the Curry injury. The team was approaching +400 in the NBA Championship odds earlier this month, but are now +650. Still, it’s a much more optimistic outlook than Memphis is getting from oddsmakers. The young Grizzlies remain +1800 longshots.
Warriors Betting Outlook
The Warriors are 1-6 against the spread in their last seven games and 36-35-4 overall in 2021-22.
In Sunday’s loss to the Warriors, Jordan Poole (26), Thompson (25), and Andrew Wiggins (23) combined for 74 points. However, that wasn’t enough to keep Golden State from dropping to 1-3 on its five-game road trip.

Poole was only 1 of 10 from three-point range. As a team, the Warriors shot 24.2% (8 of 33) from distance.
Poole has scored at least 20 points in 13 straight games. He did so 15 times in the first 55 games of the season.
Thompson reached the 20-point mark for the 11th time in 28 games after sitting out the first 38 games of the season and all the two previous seasons because of injury.
Wiggins has scored 20 or more in two of the three games after hitting that mark only once in his prior 18 games.

Grizzlies Betting Outlook
The Grizzlies have been the winning side against the number in four straight games and were one-point underdogs Saturday in the win over the Bucks. For the season, Memphis has an ATS record of 49-26.
De’Anthony Melton led the way as he scored a team-high 24 points in just 21:51 off the bench. He made 8 of 11 shots from the field, including knocking down 6 of 9 on three-pointers.

The Grizzlies had just eight turnovers against the Bucks while holding them to 39.8% (37 of 93) from the field and 7 of 32 (21.9%) on three-point tries. Memphis ran its home winning streak to seven games.
Warriors-Grizzlies Prediction
The Grizzlies have won three of the last four meetings between the teams, including going 2-1 this season.
Memphis won the last matchup 116-108 on Jan. 11 at home as Morant had 29 points and eight assists while Ziaire Williams added 17 points and Jones contributed 17 points and eight dimes. Curry had a triple-double with 27 points, 10 rebounds and 10 assists.
The line is high, but the Warriors are still good enough to at least sneak under the double-digit number.
The Pick: Warriors +10.5 (-110)
