Memphis Grizzlies game tonight vs Golden State Warriors: odds, injury reports, predictions

The Memphis Grizzlies, winners of four consecutive games without superstar point guard Ja Morant will try to continue their excellent play when they host the Golden State Warriors March 28.

The surging Grizzlies are facing a struggling Warriors team that is 7-14 since Feb. 9 and still trying to get their Big Three healthy.

Draymond Green and Klay Thompson have both been healthy and on the court for the most part, but the team has been without Stephen Curry since March 18 due to sprained left foot.

The Grizzlies are an astounding 17-2 this season in games that Morant does not play, putting their deep bench and unmatched chemistry to work.

Will the Grizzlies find a way to continue winning games without one of the best players in the NBA?

Memphis Grizzlies vs Brooklyn Nets March 23 predictions

Based on the injury reports, it’s very unlikely that either of these teams will be rolling out a lineup resembling many starters.

Golden State is expected to rest Thompson, Green and Porter Jr. since they are on the second night of a back-to-back. The lost a game against the Wizards March 27 by a score of 123-115.

Memphis may be without starter Jaren Jackson Jr. or key back-up Brandon Clarke. The Grizzlies could use a starting lineup of Tyus Jones, Desmond Bane, Dillon Brooks, Kyle Anderson and Steven Adams. Ziaire Williams may also get consideration for the starting job in lieu of Anderson— something he has done in 28 of his 55 appearances during his rookie campaign.

The Grizzlies should be able to use their momentum to carry them into this game with little resistance from a Warriors team looking to rest and put their full power into the upcoming NBA Playoffs.

We will likely see a lot of rookies Moses Moody and Jonathan Kuminga in this game. Both are very good players, but aren’t yet playing well enough consistently to carry the team whenever Steph, Klay and/or Draymond are unavailable.

Keep an eye on Memphis Grizzlies bench player De’Anthony Melton to continue his hot-handed offensive streak. The former USC product averages slightly more than 10 ppg this season; however, in the past four games he has scored 24, 19, 23 and 16 points each. More so, he’s knocked down 4+ threes in each of those games, too.

Look for a big Memphis win at home on March 28.

Prediction: Memphis 124, Golden State 105
