Memphis Grizzlies Betting Preview

The Grizzlies have one of the best offenses in the league and have been solid over their last 10 games. During this stretch, they have had losses only when they give up at least 120 points or more.

Jaren Jackson Jr. has been leading their offense with 23.0 points per game on 49.5 percent shooting for the field, ranking 24th in the league overall for scoring. Ja Morant is close behind averaging 20.7 points per game, as the two of them have been dynamic scorers for this team.

Memphis ranks first in the league for points per game at 123.3. They are allowing their opponents to get 115.8 points each game, ranking 22nd. This is a solid difference between the two averages, but could still use some work.

The Grizzlies efficiency on offense per 100 possessions ranks sixth, while their defense at the same rate ranks seventh. They also have the best pace of play and rank fourth for their point differential each game.

Orlando Magic Betting Preview

The Magic have struggled for a majority of the season and continue to flip flop on a .500 record. Over their last 10 games, they have looked somewhat decent.

Franz Wagner is a huge part of their team on both ends of the floor, as he leads them with 25.1 points and 4.9 assists each game. Goga Bitadze is also an important factor, contributing 8.6 points and 8.0 rebounds a game.

Orlando ranks dead last for points per game, at 104.0. Surprisingly, their defense tends to slow other teams down as they allow 105.4 points a game and rank second. If only their offense could sustain more growth, this could be a much better team.

The Magic have the second to last pace of play in the league. Per 100 possessions, their efficiency on offense is 29th while their defense ranks second at the same rate. If they can find ways to be more efficient on the offensive end, they would be a much deadlier team.
