Game Preview

New Orleans Pelicans are 7-3 in the last 10 games. Right now, the Pels are riding a four-game winning streak that saw them beat the Bulls, Mavericks, and Jazz twice. In the meantime, their contest with the Milwaukee Bucks was canceled due to weather conditions.

CJ McCollum went off in the second clash between the Pels and the Jazzers. The team from the Big Easy won following overtime, 123-119, and McCollum scored 45 points, eight boards, four assists, and three turnovers.

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 Head to Head

Memphis was better than the Pelicans at home on November 28. The final result was 120-109.

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.
