Memphis Grizzlies Team News
The Memphis Grizzlies managed to defeat Dallas 104:88 away from home. The fact that Luka Dončić did not play in the Mavericks team also helped the guests. With six playful players, among whom Bane made the strongest impression, it was not difficult for the Grizzlies to defeat the indisposed hosts.

Ja Morant will most likely not be in the match against Miami. It wasn’t there against the Mavericks, but Miami is a class better team than the weakened Texans. The Memphis Grizzlies are in second place behind the Nuggets. They are 6-4 in their last ten games and have just one more win than the third-place Kings. We can expect a more aggressive fight from them in the clash with Miami because they care about staying in this position.

Miami Heat vs Memphis Grizzlies Prediction
Miami regained some confidence with the win over the Jazz. They played well and varied offensively, and this win will surely help them against the weakened Grizzlies. On the other hand, Memphis is holding up well for now in the absence of Ja Morant and will not go to Florida to lose.
We recommend a bet here that the total will be more than 217.5 points because both teams have shown they can pass a hundred whenever they want.
