On Friday, the Los Angeles Clippers will test their mettle against the Memphis Grizzlies at Intuit Dome.
The Clippers are rolling, having won their last four games and seven of their last eight. Despite losing Paul George to the Philadelphia 76ers in free agency, the LA Clippers maintain their status as legitimate contenders in the Western Conference, banking on the depth and production of their stars Kawhi Leonard and James Harden. Starting center Ivica Zubac has also elevated his game to another level this year, averaging career highs in points (16.4 ppg), rebounds (12.6 RPG), and minutes played (32.6).
The Grizzlies have lost three of their last four games, knocking them down to No.5 in the West Standings with a 43-27 record. Ranked No.2 with 122.3 points per game, Memphis had its worst scoring night this season, recording 99 points on 40.2 FG% in a 99-115 loss to the Portland Trail Blazers on March 19. Ja Morant did not play in the game with a hamstring injury.

Our LA Clippers vs Memphis Grizzlies Prediction
The Clippers are peaking just in time for the postseason. Kawhi Leonard has begun to put up strong numbers consistently, while James Harden continues to be a stabilizing force in the backcourt. But what makes this year’s Clippers dangerous is Ivica Zubac’s emergence as the third scoring option for the team. Suddenly, the Clippers have transformed into a team that can deal damage from anywhere on the court, outside or inside. Defensively, the Clippers are still top-notch. Los Angeles had smothered the Hawks and Hornets to under 100 points before they held the No.1 offensive team in the league, the Cavs, below their season average.
Meanwhile, Memphis just came off their worst shooting night this season. Without Ja Morant, I doubt the Grizzlies can turn things around quickly against an outstanding defensive team like the Clippers. Our betting prediction for Memphis Grizzlies vs. LA Clippers: LA Clippers will cover -6.5 points.
Prediction:
