Grizzlies at Lakers picks and predictions
Prediction
Lakers 114, Grizzlies 107
Moneyline
The Grizzlies are struggling without Morant to start the season, and the Lakers (-200) have found their offense, scoring 116 and 122 points in their last 2 games.
The Lakers are undefeated at home so far this season and should pick up a win, but -200 odds aren't good to wager unless it is part of a parlay bet.
PASS.
Against the spread
The Lakers are 1-5 ATS when favored and 2-3 ATS in their 5 wins.
The Grizzlies have only covered the spread once this season in a loss.
In the last 10 matchups between the 2 teams, including the postseason last year, the victor has covered the spread.
BET LAKERS -5.5 (-105).
Over/Under
The Lakers' last 2 games have hit the Over. However, the Grizzlies only average 108.6 points per game.
In the last 5 matchups between these teams, only an overtime game hit the Over.
BET UNDER 223.5 (-105).
