Memphis Grizzlies @ Toronto Raptors Preview

The Memphis Grizzlies enter this matchup as one of the league's most dominant teams, boasting the NBA's top-scoring offense at 123.4 points per game and ranking fifth in field goal percentage (48.6%). With Ja Morant back in the lineup, Memphis has been on a tear, winning three straight games and averaging 116.8 points per game since his return. Jaren Jackson Jr. has been a standout performer, coming off a 37-point game against Milwaukee and a 31-point effort against San Antonio. Memphis also leads the league in rebounding (47.7 RPG), which could exploit Toronto's 24th-ranked defensive rebounding unit.

On the other hand, the Toronto Raptors have shown significant defensive improvement since January 1, leading the league in defensive rating (105.7) and allowing the fewest points per game (105.0). Scottie Barnes and RJ Barrett have been key contributors, with Barrett averaging a career-best 21.7 points per game. However, injuries to key players like Jakob Poeltl and Immanuel Quickley have left the Raptors shorthanded, making this a challenging matchup against a deep and talented Grizzlies squad.

Pick: Memphis Grizzlies -9

widget-odds-nba-ats-4775-MEM-TOR

The Memphis Grizzlies are the clear favorites in this matchup, and for good reason. Their high-powered offense, led by Ja Morant and Jaren Jackson Jr., should be too much for a depleted Raptors squad to handle. Memphis' rebounding dominance and depth give them a significant edge, and their ability to exploit Toronto's defensive vulnerabilities in the paint makes them a strong pick to cover the 9-point spread. While the Raptors' improved defense could keep the game competitive early, expect the Grizzlies to pull away late and secure a comfortable victory.

Top Player Prop Picks

1. Jaren Jackson Jr. Over 24.5 Points

widget-props-nba-4775-2054178

Jaren Jackson Jr. has been on a scoring tear, averaging 29 points over his last two games. With Toronto struggling to defend the paint, Jackson is poised for another big night.

2. Ja Morant Over 9.5 Assists

Ja Morant has been a playmaking machine since his return, averaging 11 assists per game in his last three outings. Against a Raptors team that allows a high assist rate, this prop looks promising.

3. RJ Barrett Over 21.5 Points

RJ Barrett has been the Raptors' most consistent scorer this season, and with Toronto relying heavily on him, he should have plenty of opportunities to hit this mark.
