8-6 Grizzlies host the 7-5 Nuggets at the FedEx Forum in Memphis, looking for their fifth straight home win and being 2.5-point favorites at betting sites to do so.

The same matchup took place last Sunday in the first of a two-game series, with the Grizzlies winning 105-90. The Grizzlies built a double-digit lead on nine three-pointers in the first half.

Grizzlies are scoring 4.2 more points per game than the 115.5 the Nuggets have allowed so far this season. Despite Memphis coming out on top on Sunday, the Nuggets have won 7 of their last 10 games against the Grizzlies. Both teams will likely take to the court on Tuesday without any of their star players, Morant will be out due to a hip injury while Jokic will also be out for personal reasons.

The Nuggets' Serbian had recorded a triple-double in each of the last four games he played in, when Jokic was out starting on November 10. The Nuggets lost the next two games against the Pelicans and the first against the Grizzlies without scoring 100 points in any of them.

In Sunday's game the Grizzlies played at a particularly fast pace that worked and several times left the Nuggets' defense in a bad position.

Memphis Grizzlies - Denver Nuggets Key Points

  1. On Sunday the Grizzlies had a lead of more than 24 points over the Nuggets
  2. Nuggets 1st in Assists % in the NBA with 20.6
  3. Grizzlies 4th in PPG with 119.7
  4. In the last 10 games the Nuggets are averaging 120.2 PPG and 45.3 rebounds

Our Memphis Grizzlies vs Denver Nuggets Prediction

Without a doubt the absence of Jokic for the Nuggets seems to be lethal on both ends of the court. No player on Sunday in Game 1 against the Grizzlies was able to score even 20 points, Murray had 13 in 34 minutes on the court and missed 5 of 6 three-point attempts. Depleted on offense, it seems unlikely that the Nuggets will be able to score more points than the Grizzlies' fast-paced offense that must take advantage of this team without Jokic. Our prediction for Nuggets vs Grizzlies is: Grizzlies -4, -120 at DraftKings.
