The Memphis Grizzlies are away to the New Orleans Pelicans in their next NBA assignment, seeking to end a four-game losing run. They have dropped to 12th in the West standings but sit eight games ahead of their hosts, who are rock bottom in the conference. Read on to find our prediction for this match.
The Pelicans won the most recent meeting with the Grizzlies to tie this series at 1-1. This was less than a week ago, as they claimed a 133-127 victory in Memphis.
That win started a short two-game winning run that was snapped last time out in Oklahoma. James Borrego’s men were outscored 104-95 to suffer their 37th loss of the season. No other team has lost as many games across both conferences.
The Grizzlies haven’t won in four games and, since December 29th, have won just three times in 14 games played. Tuomas Lisalo’s men, who were in the picture for a playoff spot, are slowly drifting away from the postseason places.
Currently 3.5 games adrift of the top 10, the Grizzlies have lost 27 games and haven’t won away from home this year. The Grizzlies are coming off a 112-97 loss at home to the Hornets, which was the second consecutive match in which they had failed to score at least 100 points.
Ja Morant remains sidelined with an elbow injury and highlights an injury report that has, among others, Scotty Pippen, Brandon Clarke, and Santi Aldama.

Our New Orleans Pelicans vs Memphis Grizzlies Prediction
Our prediction for the New Orleans Pelicans v the Memphis Grizzlies is that the New Orleans Pelicans wins. The Pelicans are the joint-worst team in the league and have lost almost 40 games. They, however, have improved slightly in recent outings, and we feel they should have the momentum to pile more misery on Memphis.
The Grizzlies have lost their last four matches and have a poor record when up against fellow losing teams. It is also worth noting that the Pelicans are much healthier than the Grizzlies, who could be without six players for this trip.
If your team in the New Orleans Pelicans and Memphis Grizzlies game takes a 20-point lead, you win!

If you want to place a bet on the moneyline in the New Orleans Pelicans vs Memphis Grizzlies game, then bet365 is the place to do it. If the team that you have bet on takes a 20-point lead in the game, then bet365 will pay your bet out as a winner. If your team goes on to lose, you are still a winner.
