Hawks vs. Grizzlies Prediction

Fatigue may prove to be a huge factor in tonight's game. The surging Grizzlies have enjoyed a two-day break now and haven't had to worry about traveling since this is a home game. The Hawks, meanwhile, have gone through a rough 1-3 run and have been on the road for tonight. However, it's the Grizzlies who've really been struck by the injury bug lately.

Even with the litany of injuries lately, the Memphis outfit are simply the superior team this season. They've been top of the league in rebounding this season, respectable on the offensive and smart in their defensive playing. The Hawks, in contrast, have struggled to find their groove this season and almost looked exhausted in their skid-breaking, painfully narrow win over the Bulls. The Grizzlies sending their home crowd happy seems very likely tonight.

Prediction: Grizzlies -8 (-110)
