Washington Wizards vs Memphis Grizzlies Prediction, Odds and Picks for Today, 12/20/25

The Memphis Grizzlies have suffered a major injury crisis among their point guards ahead of today’s game against the visiting Washington Wizards. Ja Morant, Ty Jerome and Scottie Pippen Jr. are all unavailable to play. It left the Grizzlies without a natural playmaker in their last game and while they were able to get away with a win, no player on their roster managed more than 4 assists in the contest. They could have trouble getting away with that tonight. The Wizards will be boosted by the return of Alex Sarr. He is the team’s main rim protector and is mobile enough to keep up with Jaren Jackson Jr. and Santi Aldama. Expect the Frenchman to be able to force kick outs from the paint tonight.

The Wizards have been far more competitive of late, despite their lowly standing. They have lost by a double-digit margin once in their last 4 games, having also picked up a win during that stretch too. They have a good prospect in Bilal Coulibaly in their starting 5 that has the length to be a real nuisance defensively. With more of the Grizzlies wings being forced into ball handling roles here, they could struggle with turnovers. Over the last 10 games they have already ranked in the bottom 10 of the league in turnover percentage and it could hold them back from being dominant tonight. Take the points on the Wizards with confidence.
