Memphis Grizzlies vs Cleveland Cavaliers Prediction & Picks - NBA
by Lou Aguila | in NBA Picks
The Cleveland Cavaliers will try to stay in contention for the No.2 seed in the Eastern Conference as they play host to the Memphis Grizzlies on April 10, 7:00 pm US EST at Rocket Mortgage Arena.
Bookmakers slated the Cavaliers as the overwhelming home favorites at -18.5 despite losing their last three games.
The Cleveland Cavaliers:
The Cavaliers discovered the brutality of playing in the West the hard way, losing four of their five games on a recent Western Conference road trip. After scoring 26 points against the Lakers, Darius Garland sustained his excellent play the next night, scoring 28 points and eight assists against the Clippers. His backcourt running mate Donovan Mitchell did not play against the Clippers to manage his injured knee.
The Memphis Grizzlies:
The Grizz lost to the San Antonio Spurs and the Philadelphia 76ers back-to-back, further sinking them in the Western Conference standings with a 27-52 record. With Ja Morant, Desmond Banes and Jarret Jackson Jr. sitting out for the remainder of the season, the Grizzlies youngsters are given ample time to showcase their skills. Jordan Goodwin recorded his third triple-double in five games after he racked up 10 points and 19 rebounds against Victor Wembanyama and the San Antonio Spurs.

Our Memphis Grizzlies vs Cleveland Cavaliers Prediction
The Cavaliers have split their last 10 meeting with the Grizzlies, though they took the W in the last two games by an average winning margin of 11 points. In their most recent win over the Grizzlies 108-101, it was Donovan Mitchell who took over as the All-Star guard recorded 25 points and 8 assists. Mitchell is expected to suit up for Wednesday's series finale vs. the Grizzlies after sitting out vs. the Clippers to properly manage a knee injury that kept him out for the majority of the season. The Cavaliers have a 95.3 percent chance of repeating against the Grizzlies, according to ESPN match predictor. However, the Cavs are facing a daunting task of covering -18.5 points, which is by far the biggest spread placed on them by bookmakers this season.
