Memphis Grizzlies vs Portland Trail Blazers Key Stats

The Memphis Grizzlies are one of the best offensive teams in the sport as they are averaging 118.1 points per game, which is fourth in the NBA. A huge reason why is their ability to draw fouls and get to the free-throw line as they are sixth in the league with 26 free-throw attempts per game.

However, they are not knocking them down anywhere near where they should be. Point guard Ja Morant is going to have to step up here as he is third in the sport with 33.3 points per game while shooting 56 percent from beyond the arc.

Their defense has been brutal as they are giving up 121.4 points per game, which is 29th in the league. Teams are shooting the ball well against them as they are allowing 48.1 percent of the shots to fall.

The Portland Trail Blazers have been an average offensive team this season as they are 14th in the sport with 115.3 points per game thus far which is a huge reason why they are 10th in the league shooting 37.7 percent from beyond the arc.

Shooting guard Anfernee Simons needs to step up as he is averaging 20.5 points per game this season and will get more looks with injuries on the roster. Defensively, they are tied with the Los Angeles Lakers and the Dallas Mavericks for eighth with 110.5 points per game so far and need to play better to win here.

Both teams are dealing with a bunch of injuries as Memphis center Steven Adams, shooting guard Desmond Bane, forward Jake LaRavia, and power forward Brandon Clarke are all questionable for this game.

Portland has shooting guard Josh Hart is questionable, but point guard Damian Lillard, shooting guard Gary Payton II, and power forward Trendon Watford are all out here.

Memphis Grizzlies vs Portland Trail Blazers Betting Prediction

The Grizzlies are going to be the healthier team with their core rotation players and that will play a huge factor going into this matchup.

With Damian Lillard out with an injury for this game, it is extremely difficult to picture a scenario where the Grizzlies do not just control this game, but also make it a lot easier down the stretch as they have huge expectations. Memphis is 4-1 against the spread following a loss in so go with them to cover here on the road.
