The Memphis Grizzlies have already beaten the Los Angeles Clippers twice this season, and that trend shapes our Clippers vs. Grizzlies Predictions, with the Under, Memphis +3.5, and two player props standing out as the most logical picks.

Clippers vs. Grizzlies NBA Game Overview
The Los Angeles Clippers enter this game on a three-game losing streak and sit near the bottom of the Western Conference at 6–19. They rank 27th in scoring at 111.6 points per game and continue to struggle against the spread, especially at home, where they are 8–17 ATS. Injuries and absences have thinned the rotation, leaving the offense heavily dependent on James Harden and Kawhi Leonard.
The Memphis Grizzlies are 11–14 and dealing with multiple long-term injuries, but they have matched up well with the Clippers. Memphis has won both head-to-head meetings this season and has consistently slowed down Los Angeles in half-court settings. Even with a bottom-third offense, their defensive discipline has been enough to control the tempo in this matchup.
Memphis Grizzlies to Cover the Spread +3.5
Memphis does not need a high-scoring night to stay competitive here. They have already beaten the Clippers twice this season and have shown they can execute defensively against Harden-led lineups. The Clippers continue to struggle late in games and have one of the league’s worst ATS records. Getting points with the team that has won both prior meetings makes sense in this spot.
Under 228.5 Total Points
Both teams rank in the bottom third of the league offensively, with the Clippers 27th and Memphis 23rd in scoring. The Grizzlies held Los Angeles under 110 points in both previous matchups, and their injury situation further limits pace and offensive flexibility. The Clippers also lack scoring depth beyond their top options, which points toward a controlled game with fewer possessions.
James Harden Over 24.5 Points
Harden remains the clear offensive engine for Los Angeles. With Bradley Beal out for the season, Derrick Jones Jr. sidelined, and Chris Paul inactive, Harden’s usage and minutes stay high. Memphis lacks perimeter depth due to injuries, and Harden has consistently cleared this number in games where the Clippers trail or need shot creation late.
Ivica Zubac Over 11.5 Rebounds
Zubac continues to be one of the most reliable contributors for Los Angeles, averaging 11.4 rebounds per game. Memphis is thin in the frontcourt and limited in its ability to rotate bigs. That creates steady rebounding opportunities, regardless of game flow, making this prop one of the more stable options on the board.
