The Grizzlies also have four wins in a row. They’re now half a game behind the Houston Rockets, who are second in the West. The contest against the Pelicans will be the third in a row at the FedEx Forum.
Memphis is very confident at home this year. Taylor Jenkins’ crew is 17-5 this season in front of its own fans, which is the second-best record in the Western Conference.

Pelicans vs. Grizzlies Prediction
Even though the Pelicans play excellent basketball, and their form is rising, we have to bet on the Grizzlies here. That 17-5 record at home and the fact that the team is way up high in the West force us to pick the hosts.
