Our Memphis Grizzlies vs Orlando Magic Prediction
While the Grizzlies have been hit with several injuries recently, the team seem to have found some rhythm and looked very good beating the impressive Miami Heat last night. Orlando are worthy favourites here, but their recent form does little to inspire confidence. We’re backing the Grizzlies to keep this one close and possibly edge it. Our Memphis Grizzlies vs Orlando Magic prediction: Memphis Grizzlies +4.5.
