Game Preview

The New York Knicks are without Karl-Anthony Towns. That’ll be hard to cover up because KAT delivers 24.8 points and 13.5 rebounds per game. Without him, the Knicks have managed to barely beat the Embiid-less 76ers 110-105 at Madison this Wednesday night.

Jalen Brunson scored 34 points, while Mikal Bridges delivered 28 points. The Knicks shot only 19 threes, scoring seven of them.

Meanwhile, the Grizzlies had a superb game against the Suns. It went to overtime, and Memphis won 151-148 in the end. Ja, Jackson Jr., and Bane led the way, delivering 82 points combined.

The Grizzlies have the best offense in the NBA this year, scoring 123.3 points per game. They shoot 48.3% from the field, slightly worse than the Knicks’ 49.3% FG.

Knicks vs. Grizzlies Head to Head

We are sure that the Grizzlies fans and players remember the massacre they survived in New York earlier this year. The Knicks won 143-106.

Knicks vs. Grizzlies Predictions

Ja Morant and the boys have pride and be sure that the Grizzlies will be looking to smash the Knicks and get even for the loss in New York. That’s why we pick them to win and cover a 9.5-point spread. Without KAT, NYK will be an easy task for the hosts.
