This Sunday Night match-up will see the Memphis Grizzlies take on the Phoenix Suns. Neither team is having a good season, but both have promising talent for the future.
Memphis Grizzlies
What a performance the Grizzlies had against the Clippers on Saturday. They won this game 140-114. The main concern is this game against the Suns will be the second of a back to back, so how much will Memphis have left in the tank after demolishing Los Angeles?
Overall, the Grizzlies have the 11th ranked scoring offense in the league, averaging 112.2 points per game. They shoot the ball at 46.6% from the field, which is the 8th best in the league. Furthermore, they shoot 35.9% from the three-point line.
Now the Grizzlies have several key players who score the ball, but the two standouts are Jaren Jackson Jr and Ja Morant. Both are averaging 17.8 points per game. They also have Dillon Brooks and Jonas Valanciunas, who are both averaging 14.4 points per game.
In the game against the Clippers, Brooks and Morant each scored 22 points, Jackson Jr had 24 and their leading scorer was Jae Crowder with 27 points.

The Grizzlies defense did a decent job to slow down Kawhi Leonard and the Clippers, but overall they are still one of the worst defenses in the NBA. They rank 27th in scoring defense and are allowing 116.5 points per game.
They hold teams to 46.5% from the field and 36.9% from deep range. Really the outcome of this game could come down to how they play defense on Devin Booker. If Booker is slowed down, they will have a legit chance to win. If not, it could be a long night for the Grizzlies defenders.
Phoenix Suns
The Suns managed to beat the Knicks last time out by a score of 120-112. They have now won three of their last four games.
It is clear the Suns are still rebuilding, but they have been able to put up points consistently. They average 114.2 points per game, which is the 6th best scoring offense in the league.
Of course the Suns are led by Devin Booker. He is by far their best scorer and is averaging 25.6 points per game. Kelly Oubre Jr is also having a solid season and is averaging 18.3 points per game. Five other guys besides their top two scorers average at least 10 points per game, so it is clear that they love to play a balanced style of basketball.
The good news is Ricky Rubio is no longer listed on the injury report, however he is likely not going to be at full strength.
Even in a win against a weak Knicks team, the Suns still allowed 112 points. They now allow an average of 115 points per game this season, ranking them 26th in the NBA. Now playing against a better offense, the defense must slow down Ja Morant to win their second game in a row.

Free Memphis Grizzlies vs. Phoenix Suns NBA Prediction:
Even playing on the second night of a back to back, the Grizzlies are a very balanced offensive team and I believe they will keep this game close enough to be able to cover the spread.
