San Antonio Spurs vs Memphis Grizzlies 1/11/2023 Picks Predictions Previews

 

The San Antonio Spurs will meet with the Memphis Grizzlies in NBA action in FedExForum, TN, on Wednesday, January 11, 2023, at 8:00 PM ET.

 

San Antonio started the year 5-2, but the Spurs fell back to the level at which everyone anticipated them to perform.

 

After a strong start to the season, they dropped 16 of their next 17 matches, including a defeat to Memphis in overtime on November 9.

 

In the middle of December, they went on their lone other winning run of the year by defeating Houston, Miami, and Cleveland in back-to-back contests.

 

After that, they did not win back-to-back games, and their defeat by Memphis on Monday was their fifth in a six-game stretch.

 

At the half, San Antonio was down by 11 points before mounting a number of late comebacks that ultimately fell short.

 

The Spurs dropped six consecutive away games without their leading scorer Keldon Johnson (hamstring) in the lineup.

 

Josh Richardson contributed 16 points, and Tre Jones contributed a team-high 18 points and seven assists on Monday.

 

Johnson is a game-time decision for this matchup; he leads the Spurs with 21.2 points and 4.8 rebounds per game.

 

The team’s second-leading scorer, shooting guard Devin Vassell, is out with a knee injury. San Antonio’s offensive ranking in the NBA is No. 22 (112.0), and it is playing Memphis’ No. 11 defense (111.3).

 

  • The San Antonio Spurs are 6-1 ATS in their previous 7 meetings. 
  • The total went OVER in 10 of San Antonio’s last 12 matches. 
  • The Spurs are 1-5 SU in their previous 6 meetings.

San Antonio Spurs vs Memphis Grizzlies Predictions 1/11/2023

 

After dropping back-to-back matches to Golden State and Phoenix, Memphis won seven straight games to become one of the NBA’s hottest teams going into this contest.

 

The Grizzlies started the undefeated run with four victories by double digits before defeating Orlando, Utah, and San Antonio in their most recent games by a single digit.

 

Ja Morant, their top scorer, missed the final two games and is doubtful to play on Wednesday because of a thigh injury. Morant leads the club with 27.2 points, 8.0 assists, and 5.9 rebounds per game.

 

Against the Spurs in November, he scored 32 points, five rebounds, and five assists.

 

In Morant’s absence on Monday, point guard Tyus Jones, the elder brother of San Antonio’s Tre Jones, led the squad with 24 points and 6 assists.

 

Desmond Bane’s season averages increased to 21.4 points and 4.0 assists after his 24 points and 9 assists in Sunday’s victory over Utah.

 

Steven Adams is grabbing a team-high 11.3 rebounds per game, while Dillon Brooks and Jaren Jackson Jr. also played important offensive roles.

 

They are seventh in the NBA with an offensive team scoring an average of 116.4 points per game. San Antonio has the league’s weakest defense with 120.6 points per game allowed.

 

  • The Memphis Grizzlies are 5-2 ATS in their last 7 matches. 
  • The Grizzlies are 7-0 SU in their last 7 matches. 
  • The total went UNDER in 5 of Memphis’ last 7 games with San Antonio.

San Antonio Spurs vs Memphis Grizzlies. The NBA pick for this game is the San Antonio Spurs.

 

As both of these teams’ top scorers are labeled as questionable, oddsmakers are delaying the release of a line for this game longer than they are delaying lines for the other matches on Wednesday’s schedule.

 

Despite the Spurs’ losing streak, they were quietly playing competitive basketball, so take San Antonio as a big road underdog.

 

In six of their last seven matches, including their game against these clubs on Monday, they covered the spread.

 

Memphis will be pleased to extend its undefeated run, while San Antonio will regret missing the chance to pull off an unexpected upset. The Grizzlies will win to a predicted score of 127-114.
