The Memphis Grizzlies and Golden State Warriors meet Wednesday in NBA action at the Chase Center. We will look at this from a betting perspective and determine the best bets for this game. Here’s a Memphis Grizzlies vs Golden State Warriors prediction.
Memphis Grizzlies
The Memphis Grizzlies have been in a major slump as they’ve lost 10 of their last 13 games overall and they will be hoping to arrest a three-game slide after getting beaten by the Kings in a 121-111 overtime road loss on Monday. Jaren Jackson Jr led the team with 25 points and four blocks, Desmond Bane added 24 points with five rebounds and four assists while GG Jackson chipped in with 22 points, seven rebounds and three assists. As a team, the Grizzlies shot just 37 percent from the field and 13 of 38 from the 3-point line as they worked hard to claw their way back from a 12-point deficit, only to go ice-cold and score just six points in overtime to allow the Kings off the hook in the end.
Golden State Warriors
Meanwhile, the Golden State Warriors have been in a real funk as they’ve lost four of their last six games overall and they will be hoping to bounce back in this spot after getting beaten by the Knicks in a 119-112 loss on Monday. Stephen Curry led the team with 27 points, five rebounds and five assists, Trayce Jackson-Davis added 19 points, nine rebounds and three blocks on nine of nine shooting while Klay Thompson chipped in with 18 points and eight assists off the bench. As a team, the Warriors shot 47 percent from the field and 14 of 36 from the 3-point line as they got off to a slow start and trailed going into halftime, before they allowed an unforgivable 37 points in the third quarter to trail by as many as 15 points which was too much to overcome. Andrew Wiggins had a rough game as he finished with just seven points on two of nine shooting while Draymond Green scored just two points on one of seven shooting. The Warriors will take on the Pacers after this one.

Grizzlies vs Warriors prediction
The Grizzlies have been doing it tough all season and they are still missing a long list of players including Brandon Clarke, Yuta Watanabe, Ja Morant and Derrick Rose to name a few, while the Warriors are keeping eyes on Moses Moody and Draymond Green who are both questionable. The Warriors have been playing well below their best lately, but they really need a big win to get their season back on track and I think they get that against this severely depleted Grizzlies qsuad coming fresh off an overtime loss.
