The Grizzlies are an even 11-11 on the road this season, while the Bulls (-300) are 13-10 at home.

The Grizzlies have won 3 of their last 4 road games. The Bulls have won 3 of their last 4 at home.

The Bulls are the hotter team, going 5-2 in their last 7 games, while the Grizzlies have lost 3 of their last 4.

But -300 odds for the moneyline isn't a good bet, so look for better value on the spread.
