Memphis Grizzlies – Atlanta Hawks : New York scrap
Back from a Berlin and London swing, the Grizzlies welcome the Hawks in a clash between two teams scrapping for a Play‑In spot. Both squads are in rough patches; the mission is obvious — grab a confidence-boosting win. Only one of them gets that tonight.
Memphis Grizzlies : can’t afford to fall behind 
After a split European trip (lost in Berlin 111-118, then bounced back in London 126-109), Memphis is back on US soil with one job: stay in the Play‑In hunt. The Clippers sneaking back into the race shoved the Grizzlies out of the West top 10 and piled pressure on Tuomas Iisalo’s crew.
Ja Morant’s return in London helped — 24 points and 13 assists — and he might inject some real momentum. This team’s strength? Extra passing. They average 29.0 assists a game. Jaren Jackson Jr will have a big role against the Hawks’ brittle frontcourt, especially with Kristaps Porzingis out.
INJURY REPORT : Santi Aldama (questionable) – Zach Edey (OUT) – Brandon Clarke (OUT) – Ty Jerome (OUT) – Scotty Pippen Jr (OUT)
Atlanta Hawks : start defending… or attack better ? 
The Trae Young trade didn’t work magic. The Hawks are on a four-game losing streak, and two losses were brutal: at the Lakers 116-141 and at the Celtics 106-132. Jalen Johnson is in a rough patch and the roster hasn’t covered for his dip. Defensively they’re a mess — 119.0 points allowed per game, the 6th worst mark in the league.
What they do well is move the ball. If Memphis racks up assists, Atlanta are even better — top of the league with 31.0 dimes a night. That’s a functioning offense, and it’s the one thing the Hawks must ride into this game.

NBA Prediction Memphis Grizzlies vs Atlanta Hawks
Over 236,5 points
Memphis are coming off a free-scoring outing, and Atlanta have lived and died by offense this season. Don’t expect a defensive slog — these are two of the league’s best passing teams. Memphis have their conductor back, and he’s publicly said he wants to stay, which helps the group. Both teams had at least a day off. All signs point to an open game and plenty of scoring.

Quick note on our tips
- What we publish on Mathodds are analyses, nothing more. We offer a view, a read of the moment, not a guarantee. Sport is unpredictable. A red card, an injury, a wild moment… and the script flips.
- Let’s be blunt: there’s no such thing as a risk-free bet. Even when it looks “obvious”, it rarely is. Yes, you can lose. At some point you probably will.
- Be sensible. Bet small, set a budget and stick to it. Don’t touch money you need to live on. Don’t chase losses — that rarely ends well.
- A bet should stay entertainment, not a job or an income source. If it’s taking over your life, stressing you out or causing problems, step away. Talk to a specialist if you need to.
- At the end of the day, responsibility is yours. Reading our content means you accept the risk exists and won’t vanish, even with the best analysis.
- Important reminder: betting is forbidden to minors and must follow your local laws. Gambling can spiral (money losses, family tension, addiction). Need help? Players Info Service: 09 74 75 13 13 (non-premium call) https://www.gambleaware.org/.
No guarantees
Our tips aren’t contracts. They carry no legal weight. In plain terms: you can’t use them to demand anything if a bet loses.
Information can change
A prediction is based on what we know when we write. Between then and tip-off a lineup can change, a player gets hurt, the weather shifts… and the take can become obsolete. We can’t be held responsible for that.
Your responsibility
Before you bet, check that gambling is legal where you are. If it isn’t, that’s on you, not us.
