But teams played Friday night and lost. The Grizzlies are the more talented and deeper team. I like them to bounce back and cover this spread.

Memphis has proven it can beat much better teams than New Orleans on the road owning victories against the Clippers and Warriors.

The Pelicans have dropped nine in a row going 3-6 ATS during this span. Their last six losses all have come by at least eight points. The Pelicans gave a strong effort last night in falling to the Nets, 120-112, but that's not always a given with this team.

New Orleans might get Brandon Ingram back today, but clearly miss Zion Williamson.
