Reasoning
The Memphis Grizzlies are taking on the Milwaukee Bucks today and it is hard to see how they are even able to put together a team for the contest. There are 15 players listed on their injury report. They enter this contest after a 32-point loss to the Toronto Raptors where just 3 of their players managed double-digit points. Of the 3, GG Jackson and Cedric Coward are doubtful to play and Javon Small is out. While the Bucks are no world beaters, they will have veteran scorers like Kyle Kuzma available to them and will be able to put together lineups that have seen far more NBA minutes together.
With Myles Turner available for the Bucks, they have been good at protecting the rim. Over the last 10 games they have been in the top half of the league in opponent points in the paint. The Grizzlies are down in 28th in that same category. The ability to score easier and more efficient points inside should prove to be a major difference tonight. The Milwaukee Bucks rank 21st in true shooting percentage over that 10-game stretch while the Grizzlies were down in 27th, and that was with guys like Jackson available. Considering the G-League level team that will be on show here, take the Bucks to comfortably outscore them and cover the spread.
Memphis Grizzlies vs Milwaukee Bucks prediction: Bucks -5.5 (-110) available at time of publishing. Playable to Bucks -7.5.
