Memphis Grizzlies vs Indiana Pacers prediction

The Memphis Grizzlies have a million injuries and should be getting their boots smoked on a nightly basis because of the roster they’re fielding. However, the Grizzlies have covered 3 straight games, so oddsmakers have had issues figuring them out with this G League roster. Also, while the Pacers are the healthier, better team, they still don’t defend, and it makes it hard to get behind these massive numbers. Moreover, the Pacers play the Celtics next, so a look ahead spot. Give me the Grizzlies and the free buckets.
