What to Know

The San Antonio Spurs haven’t won a game against the Memphis Grizzlies since Dec. 23 of 2020, but they’ll be looking to end the drought on Friday. San Antonio will take on Memphis at 8 p.m. ET at FedExForum after having had a few days off. The Grizzlies will be strutting in after a victory while the Spurs will be stumbling in from a defeat.

San Antonio was within striking distance but couldn’t close the gap on Monday as they fell 110-104 to the Utah Jazz. A silver lining for San Antonio was the play of shooting guard Derrick White, who had 21 points and eight assists.

Meanwhile, even if it wasn’t a dominant performance, the Grizz beat the Los Angeles Lakers 104-99 on Wednesday. Memphis’ point guard Ja Morant did his thing and shot 6-for-7 from beyond the arc and finished with a double-double on 41 points and ten rebounds.

The Spurs are expected to lose this next one by 5.5. They are currently four-for-four against the spread in their most recent games, however, a trend bettors might want to take into account.

It was close but no cigar for San Antonio as they fell 100-96 to the Grizzlies when the two teams previously met in May of last year. The loss knocked San Antonio out of the playoffs, so expect them to come at Memphis with a vengeful fire.
