It’s Monday, January 13th, and the Memphis Grizzlies (25-14) and Houston Rockets (25-12) are ready to leave the Toyota Center in Houston.
The Houston Rockets have won three in a row. Their Saturday game in Atlanta was postponed due to the wintry weather that ravaged the city. As it turns out, tonight’s game is technically the end of a home-and-home with Memphis for the Rockets. These teams played Thursday in Memphis and Houston prevailed 119-115. For their part, the Grizzlies have played one game since that tilt against the Rockets. Already Morant and co. won at home Saturday night in Minneapolis against the Timberwolves.
The Grizzlies are currently 10-9 on the road with a +8 point differential, while the Rockets are 6-4 in their last ten home games.

Expert picks and predictions for Grizzlies vs. Monday Rockets
NBC Sports Bet Best Bet
Brad Thomas (@MrBradThomas) expects Ja Morant to have a night: Ja Morant OVER 22.5 points (-105)
“Morant lit up the Rockets when they played on the 9th in what wasn’t a great shooting night. However, it looked like the Rockets tried to throw different looks at Morant in that game. Thompson and FVV were the main supporters of it. He has size and speed over FVV, so there were a lot of drives in the lane that weren’t contested, and he has speed on Thompson that helped in the run game. The Rockets give up the 11th most points to PGs and with Brooks primarily taking on the Jacksons on the defensive end, Morant is free to score.”
