The current betting odds have the Grizzlies listed as a 4 point favorite in this game according to Draftkings Sportsbook. The Grizzlies were one of the best teams in the league last year and they have already gotten off to a good start this year. Their star player Ja Morant is back healthy for this season and he has looked better than ever as he continues to grow with this team. The Grizzlies were a very good team even without him though and they will have no problem outplaying the Timberwolves here who haven't had things go the way they planned. They traded for Rudy Gobert in the off-season but it hasn't worked out well so far as they are below .500 this season and have been really struggling to win their games. They finally thought they found some rhythm on their win streak a few weeks ago but they have fallen on their face once again with poor play in their last few games. The Grizzlies have a lot of talent on their team and they are good enough to beat the Timberwolves when they are at their best. The Grizzlies have also been a lot more consistent with their play this season than the T-Wolves have so the Grizzlies on the road here are still a much more reliable team than the Timberwolves have been. The best way to place a bet here is on the Grizzlies to cover the spread in this game.

“Amazing, he did it all. He didn’t force no shots. He was trying to get us involved. And then when it’s time to take over, he takes over.” - Dillon Brooks on Ja Morant after his team’s win against the Knicks in their game on Sunday.

 

 

“Certainly it set the tone with all the 3s they made early. We haven’t been making 3s at a very good clip recently at all, so it’s a huge deficit.” - Chris Finch after his team’s loss against the Wizards in their game on Monday.
