Dealing with an array of injuries, Memphis has struggled of late. It's 2-8 straight up (SU) and 5-5 ATS in its last 10 games, including 1-2 ATS in its last 3 on the road.

Minnesota is 7-3 SU in its last 10 games and 6-3 ATS in its last 9. It has covered in 5 of its last 7 and will overwhelm this Grizzlies team that has struggled to generate offense.
