Grizzlies Recent Form & Key Stats

• Overall Form: The Grizzlies have picked the wrong time of the season to fall out of form but it appears that’s what’s happening. They have suffered some devastating losses as of late by margins of 20, 16 & 10.
• Home Record: Thankfully for them, their home form has remained solid, winning three of their last four in Memphis.
• Over/Unders: Their games have seen a slight bias towards overs this season, however, their home games have seen a slight bias to unders.
• Key Player to Watch: Desmond Bane – Bane is up on almost all of his stats this season. He’s been carrying the Grizzlies as of late and if others around him can return to form we could see him shine and post something near to what he did against the Kings recently.
• Defensive Record: The Grizzlies biggest problem all season long has been their defense. If they can sort that out they could be a force to be reckoned with come playoff time.
• Head-to-Head vs Lakers: The Lakers have dominated this fixture over the past year, winning four of the last five encounters.

Lakers Recent Form & Key Stats

• Overall Form: The Lakers have also had a wobble as of late, posting back-to-back losses over a three game period.
• Away Record: Their form on the road appears to have completely deserted them having recently lost five in a row.
• Over/Unders: Much like their opponents here, most of the Lakers games have seen an equal split between overs and unders.
• Key Player to Watch: Luka Doncic – Doncic is having another exceptional season and despite the Lakers dip in form, his scoring stats have actually increased over the last ten games.
• Defensive Record: LA’s defense has generally been decent this season but it’s not what we have come to expect from them over the years.
• Head-to-Head vs Grizzlies: The last three meetings between them  that has been played in Memphis has seen a minimum of 243 points scored.

Match, Team, and Player Insights

Match Context

When you look at the Grizzlies vs Lakers stats there is nothing to separate these teams at present and they both seem like they’re not handling the pressure very well heading into the latter part of the season. This is probably expected of the young Grizzlies, however, the Lakers have a wealth of experience to call upon. Will that experience be the difference in this one? Let’s take a look at the team performance trends before revealing more NBA predictions.

Team Performance Trends

• • All Out Attack for Grizzlies: The Grizzlies only know one way of playing and that is all out attack. They’re averaging 122 points per game this season which is the second highest in the NBA.
  • Western Troubles for LA: The Lakers have won less than 40% of their away fixtures against teams from the Western Conference.

• March Madness for Memphis: Memphis have only won 30% of their last 20 games played in March. Are they running out of steam towards the end of the season or folding under the pressure and expectations? 

• Bookies Giving Grizzlies a Hard Time: Memphis has only won two of their last 18 games against the spread. Are the Bookies expecting too much from them?

Key Player Matchups

• Desmond Bane vs. Luca Doncic: Although we highlighted these two earlier, it’s hard to look past either man being the key to victory for their respective teams. That’s because they both make their teams tick at present. They’re both well rounded players who always put their teams first. There is no doubt that Doncic is the better player but you feel that his new Lakers team mates are still trying to get to grips with his style of play at times, which is certainly a leveller in the matchup.

Prediction Summary for Grizzlies vs Lakers

With very little separating these teams, it would be a brave person who tried to call the winner of this one. With both of them out of form expect an edgy, tight game, which could play into the unders pick. However, history contradicts this and suggests there will be plenty of points. The best play is to stick with the two form players who are playing good basketball despite their teams recent downturn.
