Tip and bets
Memphis Grizzlies are considered clear favorites of the upcoming game. It's hard to argue with that. Grizzlies have won two of three latest head-to-head matches. Without Ayton in the line-up, Suns will have almost no chance for a success. Morant and Adams are in a superb form, so Memphis should be able to secure an away victory.
