Monday, March 25th offers the third of four meetings between the Memphis Grizzlies and Denver Nuggets. The Nuggets won both prior matches, while Memphis will host the final meeting on April 14th.

The Grizzlies last played Friday edging out the Spurs 99-97 while the Nuggets played Saturday defeating the Blazers 114-111.

Season Series

Last season, the teams played three times with the Nuggets taking two of the three contests and also holds the all-time record having bested the Grizzlies in 64 of their 104 matches.

*Editor’s Note: Statistics and rankings are current as of this writing, on Sunday, March 24th. Numbers may vary slightly entering games on Monday, March 25th.

Memphis Grizzlies

Although I consider myself a bit of an NBA nerd I’ll admit there are nights I’ve tuned into watch a match featuring the Grizzlies and didn’t know a bunch of players on the court.

So the fact the Grizz are sniffing the top ten in defensive ranking is a true testament to Taylor Jenkins and the culture in Memphis.

With so many of their core dealing with season-long injuries the best news for the Grit and Grind crew is next season Morant will return and they’ll have spent this year sussing out viable support players to bolster the roster.

Grizzlies Stats

Memphis ranks dead last on offense (106.9), and a credible 11th defensively (113.4) while they are a minus -6.5 net differential which ranks 25th overall.

The Grizzlies ride the middle ground (and better than their win/loss performance) against the spread with a 35-36 record this season.

Grizzlies Injury Report

To summarize the injury report…

  • Derrick Rose, PG (OUT indefinitely back)
  • Marcus Smart, PG (OUT indefinitelyfinger)
  • Luke Kennard, SG (questionable personal)
  • Yuta Watanabe, SG (questionable personal)
  • Brandon Clarke, PF (OUT indefinitely Achilles)
  • Ja Morant, PG (OUT for season shoulder)
  • Lamar Stevens, SF (questionable groin)
  • Ziaire Williams, SF (OUT indefinitely hip)
  • Desmond Bane, PG (questionable back)
  • Vince Williams Jr., SF (questionable knee)

Denver Nuggets

If you’ve been following my previews you know I called for the Nuggets to ultimately claim the West’s top seed which is where they enter this match after Sunday’s games.

Denver and Minny have 11 games left to play while OKC has 12 but if the Nuggets can maintain the pace they’ve played since returning from the break I believe they’ll remain in first.

Five of Denver’s last 11 matches are against winning clubs including two pivotal games against the Wolves but also feature the Suns plus a couple of teams who’ve been stumbling of late (Clippers/Cavaliers).

Nuggets Stats

Denver ranks fifth on offense (117.6) and 10th defensively (112.9) with a net differential of plus +4.7, ranking fifth overall.

Despite their record, the Nuggets aren’t as solid against the spread with a 32-37-2 record through 71 contests.

Nuggets Injury Report

To summarize the injury report…

  • Nikola Jokic, C (questionable back)
  • Jamal Murray, PG (questionable ankle)
  • Zeke Nnaji, PF (questionable back)
  • Jalen Pickett, SG  (questionablepersonal)
  • Vlatko Cancar, SF (OUT indefinitely knee)

Free Memphis Grizzlies vs. Denver Nuggets NBA Prediction:

Having sat Nikola Jokic and Jamal Murray on Saturday in Portland this is another opportunity for Mike Malone to give his superstars some more time off to heal nagging injuries.

I’d still expect the Nuggets to win, however, if they do rest the stars the 17.5 spread is far too rich.

Factor in that even if Jokic and Murray play Denver has developed a bad habit of playing with their food often allowing lower-tier opponents to stay close – – until the fourth quarter when they shut the door.
