Warriors vs Grizzlies Prediction: NBA Play-In Tournament Picks

Despite the Memphis Grizzlies and Golden State Warriors being so far apart geographically, both are a part of the Western Conference. Here, Golden State Warriors vs Memphis Grizzlies play for the final playoff spot in the West in the final game of the play-in tournament. In this round of NBA picks, we look at this Western Conference clash and give you our best bet for what should be an entertaining game with the eighth seed on the line.

This game is being played at 9:00 PM ET at Chase Center

Why bet the Warriors:

✅ Warriors vs Grizzlies was just played on Sunday, with the Warriors winning that game by double digits. Steph Curry went off for 46 points, as the Grizzlies appeared to have no answer for him. Expect the MVP finalist to have another huge game here in the final matchup of the play-in tournament.

✅ In that Sunday matchup, the Grizzlies shot just 6-24 from three-point range against the Warriors. That performance is closer to the rule than the exception for the Grizzlies, who typically try to beat teams with two pointers instead of threes. Against the Warriors, that isn't a sustainable solution.

✅ Golden State looked better than the result of their play-in loss to the Lakers suggested. They held a double-digit lead at halftime and should have closed the game out, but were outplayed down the stretch. They won't have the same problem against a less explosive Memphis Grizzlies team.

Games between the Warriors and Grizzlies are often fun to predict. With both teams boasting powerful scoring prowess season after season, Warriors vs Grizzlies is a great matchup to predict before sitting back to watch the two sides play basketball. Here, we will summarize the main betting markets that you can use to predict basketball games between the Golden State Warriors and Memphis Grizzlies.

Warriors vs Grizzlies Against the Spread Predictions

NBA fans bet against the spread on games all season long, more than they bet on perhaps any other market. The goal of the point spread is to even the playing field between two basketball teams. This is done by taking points from the final score of the favorites or adding points to the final score of the underdogs.

In Warriors vs Grizzlies spread bets, the goal is to pick which side will have the higher score after the point spread is applied. With NBA games featuring scoring runs and other shifts in momentum throughout, it is important to remember that the spread covers the full game in most cases and that a game is never decided until the final buzzer sounds.

Memphis Grizzlies vs Warriors Over/Under Betting

Golden State Warriors vs Memphis Grizzlies games can also be wagered on with the over/under market. This is one of the best markets for making every possession feel important, as every possession can help or hurt whichever side of the total is bet on. In the over/under, the sportsbooks will set a total number of combined points. Bettors have to predict whether the total score will be over or under that amount.

A big key to this market is looking at the way that teams have played during a full season. Their record isn’t what matters, but their style of play is important. Teams who are the best at long distance shooting, for example, may be more likely to have high scoring games and reach the over more easily.

Golden State Warriors vs Grizzlies Moneyline Predictions

How the Golden State Warriors and Memphis Grizzlies play at home or when they visit opponents on the road can have a big impact on who comes out on top in this type of bet.
