The Memphis Grizzlies lead the Spurs 3-2 in the series and are heading back home for tonight’s 9PM ET tip. Memphis is 4-1 against the point spread odds in this series, with Wednesday’s overtime loss being the only game the Grizz haven’t covered.

The Spurs have been struggling with the spread as of late, covering in just two of their last eight games. San Antonio appears to have a bad matchup against Memphis, as their two wins have been by a combined 13 points, and one was an overtime miracle.

Oddsmakers from online sports book SBGGLOBAL.com have made the Grizzlies 3-point home favorites over the Spurs, while the over/under total for this game is currently 189.5 points. Tip off tonight is 9PM ET.

NBA Playoff Free Pick: The value is once again in Memphis tonight. According to latest NBA trends, the Spurs are 1-9-1 against the point spread odds in their last 11 games with Memphis and 0-4 ATS in their last four games at Memphis. The Grizzlies are also 21-5 ATS in their last 26 games following a loss. Memphis just seems to have San Antonio’s number and the Spurs look like a team that is a step slow and just hanging on for dear life in the series.
