LiontipsMemphis vs Lakers. Predictions and Betting Tips for NBA
Command Analysis
Memphis continues to surprise everyone. In the most recent match Grizzlies recorded a victory over Phoenix. Grizzlies played that match without Brooks, Melton, Merrill and Culver, but team still managed to win. 33 points of Ja Morant and 32 points of Desmond Bane helped to beat the Suns (114:113).
It was a second consecutive victory for the Jenkins' men. Before that Memphis beat Sacramento (127:102).
Lakers have finally put an end to their losing streak. Lakers managed to beat Houston (132:123), but we can't say that it was an impressive win for the Los Angeles team. Many of Rockets' key players were unavailable for this match, but team still managed to put up a good fight to the favourite.
Lakers are approaching the match against Memphis with a number of injuries. Too many players won't be able to feature in the match. Vogel's men will have to do without Anthony Davis, Russell Westbrook, Rajon Rondo and Kendrick Nunn.

Tip and bets
Out of team's key players only LeBron James is available to play for the Lakers. His contribution won't be enough for the victory. Morant and Bane managed to beat Phoenix, so we think that they will be able to record a victory over the Lakers as well. We are expecting a confident victory from the Grizzlies.
Our prediction - Memphis to win with a handicap of (-3,5) points
Too many of Lakers' players are sidelined, so we are not expecting a high-scoring performance from the Vogel's men. We don't think that a total of 228,5 points will be beaten.
Our second bet is on total under 228,5 points
