The top two contenders for the West Conference title, Memphis Grizzlies and the Phoenix Suns, meet in Arizona on Friday night.
Before Betting on the Grizzlies vs. Suns
The Grizzlies have experienced back-to-back losses after seven victories. The first one was in Oklahoma, where Thunder beat Ja and the boys, 115-109, and after that, the Nuggets were lethal for the franchise from Memphis, 105-91.
The reason for that could be low shooting percentages, as in both events, Memphis had sub-45% of field goals. Ja had 35 points in Colorado, dropping 10 dimes as well. Only two more guys had a double-digit number of points, 11 Dillon Brooks and 10 Brandon Clarke.
Surprisingly, the Suns lost to the Washington Wizards at the Footprint Center, 113-110. Devon Booker was out again, along with a few more players, yet that won’t be an alibi for this unexpected loss. Deandre Ayton scored 30 points with 13 boards, while Landry Shamet scored 31 off the bench.
Chris Paul had 12 with 11 assists, and overall, it was noticeable that the Suns’ defense was a bit looser than usual. The oscillations were huge as well, with the Suns losing 17 points and leading 10, which is a +/- 27.
