Grizzlies picks and predictions at Warriors
Prediction
Warriors 121, Grizzlies 109
Money line
The Grizzlies aren’t great on the road. Fifteen of their 23 wins have come in away games, but they have lost 7 of their last 9 away from home.
The Warriors (-650) are 17-18 at home this season and have lost their last 3 at Chase Center.
But the Warriors are healthy and the Grizzlies are shorthanded. They lost 10 of 13 and 18 of 23.
Don’t count on an upset win for Memphis, but don’t bet on the Warriors at -650 either. It’s not worth it.
