The Memphis Grizzlies and Sacramento Kings square off to conclude Thursday night's (October 27) slate.
Memphis has been picking up where they left off last season, as they are 3-1 to begin this season. They have been electric offensively but need to figure some things out on the defensive end of the court as the season goes on.
On the other side of the coin, Sacramento has been struggling out of the box as they are 0-3 and are one of three teams in the NBA to still be without a victory this season. Their talent is bare, and they look to be heading to the NBA Draft lottery with a lot of ping-pong balls in their favor.

Memphis Grizzlies vs. Sacramento Kings Best Picks
Ja Morant has been one of the best scorers in the NBA this season, as he is averaging 35.3 points per game. A huge reason why has been his electric shooting from the three-point line, as he is knocking down 60 percent of his threes this season and has scored more than 30 points in three of his four games this season. With injuries to some players, he has the fifth-highest usage rate at 35.8 percent, so the ball is in his hands and this seems way too easy of a bet as he is being defended by De'Aaron Fox all night long.
Ja Morant to Record 30+ points (-145)
These teams are solid on the offensive side of the court and lacking defensively. Looking at the pace numbers, Memphis is sixth with a 115.9 offensive rating this season, while Sacramento is average at 17th with a 110.7 offensive rating to begin the season. The over has hit in each of their last five games played in Sacramento against one another, so it only seems right that the over is the better play in this game too.
Over 236.5 Points (-110)
Memphis Grizzlies vs. Sacramento Kings Prediction
These teams are on opposite sides of the standings, and it does not feel like this game is going to be close, but the spread is saying otherwise. The Grizzlies are built to win games now, while the combination of De'Aaron Fox and Domantas Sabonis does not feel like it will be enough to pick up wins with a weaker bench.
The Memphis Grizzlies have been on fire this season, but the Kings are keeping games close as they have not lost by more than seven points in any game this season. Go with Memphis to narrowly cover this spread on the road.
Memphis -3 (-115)
