*Editor’s Note: Statistics and rankings are current as of this writing, Tuesday, March 14th. Numbers may vary slightly entering games on Wednesday, March 15th.
Memphis Grizzlies
The Grizzlies announced Ja Morant has entered a counseling program in Florida but gave no indication on how much longer the star would remain out.
Regardless, the important thing is Morant is getting help to deal with what he described as the need to deal with stress better and his overall well-being.
Stats
Meanwhile, offensively, the Grizzlies score 115.6 points per game ranked 11th overall. Memphis shoot 46.8% from the field ranking 19th, and 34.3% from the perimeter ranking 24th.
Memphis still owns the best opponent field goal percentage of 44.8% while limiting opponents to 111.6 points per game and 35.1% ranking fifth and ninth respectively.
Injury Report
To summarize the injury report…
- Steven Adams C (OUT rest of regular season—PCL strain)
- Brandon Clarke PF (OUT for season—torn Achilles)
- Ja Morant (OUT indefinitely—suspension)
- Vince Williams Jr. (questionable —shoulder)
- Jake LaRavia, SF (questionable —back)
Miami Heat
Kyle Lowry is back with the team and came off the bench in his return scoring nine points (2-4 from deep) and dishing four dimes in 19 minutes.
Historically, Lowry takes a few games to get his rhythm back after a long absence and says he’s fine coming off the bench. BUT — you can be sure if his presence adds to the anemic offense either through direct scoring or playmaking he’ll quickly return to the starting rotation.
Stats
Offensively, the Heat scores 108.7 points per game ranking 30th while shooting 45.4% from the field and 33.8% from the perimeter ranking 30th and 27th respectively.
Defensively, the Heat allow opponents to score 109.5 points per game ranking second overall. Miami opponents shoot 47.9% from the field and 36.8% from the perimeter ranking 21st in both categories.
Injury Report
To summarize the injury report…
- Cody Zeller C (questionable — nose)
- Nikola Jovic SF (OUT indefinitely, — back)

Free Memphis Grizzlies vs. Miami Heat NBA Prediction:
Memphis hasn’t been great on the road (13-21), particularly since Steven Adams’ injury (2-9) with victories only in Houston and against an injury-depleted Mavs squad.
Miami on the other hand statistically is one of the worst teams offensively and for as solid as they are defensively has a negative net differential that ranks 11th in the East (23rd in the league).
That latter factor is enough for me to take the points regardless of who plays for Memphis.
