Free Utah Jazz vs. Memphis Grizzlies NBA Prediction:
The Jazz are 2-0 so far in the season series with Memphis. But there are some important things to note about those two games.
For starters, the Grizzlies were still without Jaren Jackson, Jr.—a player averaging 3.2 blocks per game over his last nine and is coming off an impressive 31-point, 10-rebound showing against Orlando.
The Grizzlies were also without Ja Morant in Game 2 of that mini-series.
Maybe most importantly, though, the Jazz were simply a different team early in the year. They were overachieving, they didn’t care they were supposed to be tanking, and, for a while, they were the most consistent team in the entire Western Conference.
Needless to say, things have changed. The Grizzlies are now fighting with the Denver Nuggets for title of Best in the West, and the Jazz are a fringe play-in team that could, realistically, slip back into lottery discussions after the trade deadline.
A nine-point spread is a lot here—especially against a team that just saw Lauri Markkanen go for a career-high 49 points. But the Jazz just aren’t on Memphis’ level. Not at this point in the season.
Grizzlies get this one at home big.
