Memphis Grizzlies vs Brooklyn Nets: the 29th-ranked offense visits a team still looking for home form 
Brooklyn were scoring 105.6 points per game at the start of November, 29th in the league. On Sunday they scored 93 in Dallas and lost by 37.
The Nets are 2-8 and 1-5 on the road. Their next trip is to FedExForum on Saturday 14 November, 8:00pm ET, after a game in New Orleans on Wednesday and two days off.
Memphis are 7-3, and the split is odd: 5-0 on the road, 2-3 at home. All three of their defeats came in one home stretch between 2 and 6 November.
Saturday is also the second night of a back-to-back for the Grizzlies, who play in New Orleans on Friday.
This is the first meeting between the teams this season. Memphis also host Denver on Wednesday, so they’ll have played three games in four nights by the time Brooklyn arrive.
Memphis Grizzlies: 10 of 45 from three in their last home game 
The last time Memphis played at FedExForum, Oklahoma City won 128-97 on 6 November. The Grizzlies shot 33% from the field and 10 of 45 from three, and Cameron Boozer went 2 of 14 without making a three.
Two days earlier Indiana won 107-103 in the same building, another night when Memphis shot under 25% from deep. Before that, New Orleans won 135-134 in overtime.
The road form couldn’t be more different. Memphis won 118-102 in Toronto on Monday, shooting 16 of 34 from three, with Ty Jerome scoring 27 and Boozer adding 22 points, eight rebounds and eight assists.
Jerome is averaging 27.4 points and had 40 in the overtime loss to New Orleans. Cedric Coward adds 14.3 points and 8.7 rebounds, and Zach Edey has been the starting center.
The rotation is stretched. Isaiah Stewart (right knee bone bruise) and Scotty Pippen Jr. (lumbar disc herniation) were ruled out through at least 11 November, Richie Saunders is out until December, and Quinten Post took an elbow to the face in Toronto.
Head coach Tuomas Iisalo will have minutes to manage on the back-to-back. Memphis games went under the total in six of their first eight.

Brooklyn Nets: Porter and Randle carrying a 2-8 start 
Michael Porter Jr. averages 21.4 points and 7.4 rebounds. Julius Randle, who arrived on 10 July in the four-team trade that sent Nic Claxton to Chicago, averages 21.0 points, 7.1 rebounds and 4.8 assists.
Beyond those two the scoring drops off fast. Nolan Traore averages 12.0, Moritz Wagner 10.4 and Day’Ron Sharpe 7.1.
The best night of the season came on 4 November: a 114-104 win over Charlotte, their first at home, with Porter putting up 26 and 10 and Mikel Brown Jr., the No. 6 pick, scoring a career-high 18 off the bench.
Atlanta on Saturday showed both sides of this team. Brooklyn led 31-14 early and Sharpe recorded his first career triple-double with 12 points, 13 assists and 10 rebounds, yet they lost 124-121 after being outscored 36-26 in the fourth quarter.
The next night in Dallas they lost 130-93. Brown isn’t cleared for back-to-backs because of a back injury, although Saturday isn’t one for Brooklyn. Egor Demin (right leg bone bruise) and Grant Nelson (knee) have been listed as game-time decisions.
One number sits in Brooklyn’s favor. Before the Atlanta game they were 4-0 against the spread on the road.
Probable lineup Memphis Grizzlies: Ty Jerome, Jaylen Wells, Cedric Coward, Cameron Boozer, Zach Edey (not confirmed, rest decisions possible on the back-to-back)
Probable lineup Brooklyn Nets: Nolan Traore, Chaney Johnson, Michael Porter Jr., Julius Randle, Day’Ron Sharpe (not confirmed, Egor Demin could return)
Free NBA Prediction: Memphis Grizzlies vs Brooklyn Nets
Our prediction: Memphis Grizzlies to win by 6 or more points (handicap -5.5)
Memphis by six or more. Brooklyn’s offense ranks near the bottom of the league, they’ve lost five of six on the road, and the Grizzlies have more ways to score, starting with a guard averaging 27.4 points.
The back-to-back and the home slump are real. Memphis have lost three of five at FedExForum, and Brooklyn covered every road number before Atlanta. Even so, the Nets lost their last two road games by 3 and 37, and a team scoring around 105 a night has to shoot well above its average to keep this close.
No line had been posted at the time of writing. A Memphis moneyline is likely to be too short to be worth it, so I’d take the handicap.

About our free predictions
- What we publish on MathOdds are analyses, nothing more. We share a view, a reading of the moment, but never a guarantee. Sport remains what it is: unpredictable. A red card, an injury, a last-minute goal, and the script changes completely.
- Let’s be clear: there is no such thing as a risk-free bet. Even when it looks “obvious”, nothing ever is. And yes, that means you can lose. It’s even inevitable at some point.
- The smartest approach is to stay reasonable. Bet small, set a budget and stick to it. Never use money you need to live on. And above all: don’t chase your losses: that rarely ends well.
- A bet should remain a game, not a job or a source of income. If it starts taking up too much space in your daily life, causes stress or frustration, take a break. And if needed, talk to a support organisation: that’s what they’re there for.
- Ultimately, responsibility lies with you. Reading our content means accepting that risk exists and will never disappear, no matter how good the analysis.
- Essential reminder: gambling is prohibited for minors and must comply with the laws of your country. Need help? Visit begambleaware.org.
No commitment from us
Our predictions carry no contractual value. They have no legal standing. In short: you cannot rely on them to claim anything if a bet doesn’t come through.
Information changes
A prediction is always based on what we know at the time of writing. But between publication and kick-off, a lineup can change, a player picks up an injury, the weather turns, and the analysis can quickly be outdated. We cannot be held responsible for that.
Your responsibility
Before placing a bet, simply check that gambling is legal in your country. If it isn’t, that’s your responsibility, not ours.
Responsible gambling
We can’t say it enough: gamble responsibly. If you’re struggling to stay in control, don’t wait to seek help.
