Nuggets vs. Grizzlies Prediction
The Memphis Grizzlies vs. the Denver Nuggets will clash from the mile high for some prime-time hoops on Tuesday night. I love Tuesday night games on TNT, as the stars typically come out to play. Talking about stars, we have a lot of them playing in this game, including the man who has won back-to-back league MVPs in the form of Nikola Jokic. Jokic is considered by many the best player in the league, and he is coming off one of the best performances in NBA history.
The thing that makes Jokic so great is his rare ability to pass the ball, so we’ll at his size. He has the handles and vision of a point guard while having the body of a center. He will be a tough matchup for the Grizzlies tonight, a team who does not have a lot of depth at the center position. Things have gone well so far this season for Denver, as they bring a record of 18-11 into play tonight. That is good for third-best in the West. The team that they are chasing at the moment are the Grizzlies.
Memphis took the league by stork a season ago, and now everyone is well aware of this team's firepower. The Grizzlies are led by former number two overall pick Ja Morant. Morant has been outstanding the last two seasons and now is considered by most one of the best players in basketball. The supporting cast for Memphis has been a huge lift this year, including the play of guard Desmond Bane.
I am backing the home team tonight. I love this Grizzlies team, but this is all about the spot. The Nuggets are a tough team to knock off in their own building. Denver is 9-3 at home this year compared to 9-8 away from home. They seem to play their best basketball in the high altitude. Memphis, on the other side of things, has been lights out at home and struggled on the road. The Grizzlies are just 6-8 on the road compared to 13-2 at home. This feels like a good spot for the Nuggets tonight on their home floor. Let’s keep rolling and cash in!
