Does Green convince again against the Grizzlies?
The Grizzlies get their second consecutive visit from the bottom of the Western Conference standings with Houston.
The Rockets are not only the worst team in the West, but also share the weakest away record in the Western Conference with their Texas neighbours San Antonio.
Memphis Grizzlies – Statistics & current form
Memphis has had a turbulent few weeks. The reason was the suspension of Ja Morant, which means that the basket ball hunters from the “Bluff City” have to do without their strongest player. But since the last game the guard is back!
Although he only came off the bench in the game against Houston, head coach Taylor Jenkins’ team is now clearly stronger with him on board. The comparison with the Rockets was also won, although only quite narrowly with 130:125.
Houston Rockets – Statistics & Current Form
The Texans can rely on Jalen Green in particular at the moment. The 21-year-old guard delivered an impressive 32 points against Memphis on the last game day and has an average scoring value of almost 31 points within the last three games.
The already best scorer of the guests is thus particularly accurate again shortly before the end of the regular season. Nevertheless, the Rockets are once again the clear underdogs in the encounter with the second-placed team in the West.
Memphis Grizzlies – Houston Rockets Tip
For the clash between the Memphis Grizzlies and Houston Rockets, the tip and odds on more than 23.5 points by Jalen Green seem promising. The shooting guard is in particularly good form at the moment and has further extended his status as the visitors’ top scorer.
In the game against the Grizzlies on the last day of play, he recorded 32 points and in two thirds of his past twelve appearances he exceeded the selected limit in points. In addition, Memphis suits him.
In his three season-long appearances against the Grizzlies, the 21-year-old recorded 28.3 points! Among all the teams in the NBA that Green has played at least twice this season, he has been more successful in scoring against New Orleans and Sacramento alone.
