Memphis Grizzlies vs Houston Rockets Prediction & Betting Tips - NBA
by Devesh Jaganath | in NBA Prediction
The Houston Rockets will head to the FedEx Forum to face the Memphis Grizzlies in the NBA on Wednesday night. The hosts are 18-36 and 13th in the Western Conference, while the visitors are 24-29 and one spot above their opponents in the Conference standings.
The Houston Rockets have been enduring a tough period, losing five of their last seven games overall. However, they managed to snap a four-game losing streak with a crucial 105-103 win over the shorthanded Knicks on Monday, which should boost their morale. Dillon Brooks led the team with 23 points, while Jabari Smith Jr. added 20 points, and Alperen Sengun and Aaron Holiday each contributed 18 points. The Rockets rank 22nd in the league in scoring, averaging 113.3 points per game, while the Memphis Grizzlies rank 12th in points per game with 113.1. Defensively, the Rockets are solid, ranking 10th in the league by allowing 114.6 points per game this season. Cam Whitmore, Tari Easton, Fred VanVleet, and Steven Adams are all listed as doubtful for the upcoming game.
The Memphis Grizzlies are facing a significant challenge as they aim to end a nine-game losing streak after a disappointing 96-87 loss to the Pelicans on Monday. Jaren Jackson Jr. led the team with 22 points, while Vince Williams Jr. and Luke Kennard contributed 12 points each. Memphis currently ranks as the lowest-scoring team in the NBA, averaging 106.7 points per game, while Houston's team is 10th in points allowed per game, conceding an average of 112.6. The Grizzlies' defense allows an average of 113.1 points per game, ranking 12th in the league. A major factor contributing to the Grizzlies' downturn has been their extensive list of injuries, with as many as nine players sidelined, including key players like Ja Morant, Marcus Smart, and Derrick Rose.

Our Memphis Grizzlies vs Houston Rockets Prediction
While both these sides are battling at the bottom end of the Western Conference standings, Memphis is in a bigger rut than their opponents, owing heavily to their injury roster, which features several of their best players, including the likes of Morant and Smart. The Rockets picked up a much-needed win over the Knicks last time out, and we fancy they will go two from two in this one. Our Memphis Grizzlies vs Houston Rockets prediction: Houston Rockets -4.0.
