The Memphis Grizzlies travel north of the border to face the Toronto Raptors at Scotiabank Arena tonight in what should be an intriguing early-season matchup between two teams still trying to find consistency. The Grizzlies come in having split their first six games, sitting at 3–3 after falling short against the Los Angeles Lakers 117–112 on Friday night. That game was a mixed bag for Memphis — they fought hard but struggled defensively down the stretch. Despite flashes of good offensive rhythm, the Grizzlies continue to rank in the bottom third of the NBA in defensive efficiency, giving up an average of 122 points per game. That level of defensive vulnerability has made it difficult for them to close out tight contests.
On the other side, the Raptors finally broke out of a rough patch with a much-needed 112–101 road win over the Cleveland Cavaliers on Friday. That victory snapped a four-game skid and gave the team a confidence boost heading into tonight's home clash. Toronto's offense looked fluid, and their bench provided key minutes that helped them seal the game late. However, defense remains a concern for this Raptors squad — they've allowed 120 or more points in each of their four losses and currently rank 26th in the league in defensive efficiency. For Toronto to build on their recent win, tightening up rotations and limiting transition opportunities will be critical.

Our Memphis Grizzlies vs Toronto Raptors Prediction
The Grizzlies continue to deal with injury setbacks. Scotty Pippen Jr., Brandon Clarke, and Ty Jerome remain sidelined, and the team is still without star guard Ja Morant due to suspension. That's left Memphis short-handed, forcing their depth players to shoulder heavier workloads. For Toronto, Jakob Poeltl has been ruled out, while rookie Jamal Shead is listed as questionable with a minor knock.
Given both teams' circumstances, this matchup feels like one Toronto should capitalize on. The Raptors are returning home after a confidence-building road win, and their key scorers finally seem to be finding rhythm. Meanwhile, the Grizzlies have been inconsistent and are missing too many pieces to rely on sustained production, especially without Morant's offensive leadership.
If the Raptors can maintain their defensive focus and continue sharing the ball as they did against Cleveland, they have a strong opportunity to pick up their first home win in front of their fans tonight. Our prediction for the Toronto Raptors vs. Memphis Grizzlies: Over 239.5 points.
