Analysis and Reason for Predictions

The health situation looks better for the Grizzlies ahead of Sunday’s game

Memphis Grizzlies will face a tough challenge in the clash against Brooklyn Nets away at Barclays Center on Sunday evening.

The Grizzlies were in action two days ago in the home match against Oklahoma City Thunder. They had suffered successive defeats to the likes of Washington Wizards and New Orleans Pelicans beforehand.

The caveat with these defeats is that head coach Taylor Jenkins was without either one or both of his main stars Ja Morant and Desmond Bane.

Memphis’ offensive output was instantly reduced as a consequence since the team notched only 92 and 102 points in these two games respectively.

Morant did return to the floor with 36 points in the 113-102 loss to the Pelicans, while Bane is also expected to be in the roster for this trip to Barclays Center.

The Nets increased the team spirits with a big win at Moda Center on Thursday

Brooklyn Nets have represented a genuine enigma for the NBA experts so far in the season. They have been so inconsistent and played without will for win at all at times.

However, the dedication and morale completely changed in the match against Portland Trail Blazers on Thursday evening.

The Nets managed to snap a two-game losing run with a phenomenal teamwork. The celebrations at the end of the game at Moda Center best showed the will and the determination for Jacques Vaughn’s troops on the occasion.

Kevin Durant finished the game with 35 points and 8 rebounds, while we have to mention Yuta Watanabe who came up with some big shots, finishing the match with 20 points, 7 rebounds, and 2 assists (5-for-7 from the three-point line).

The Nets have gained confidence with the win at Portland

The win away at Portland has certainly lifted the spirits in the Nets’ dressing room and we expect Kevin Durant and company to offer another stunning effort on both ends of the floor on the back of such a performance at Moda Center. This is why we will take the Nets to win in moneyline at the -110 odds. You can also take Kevin Durant Over 30.5 points at the -110 odds.
