They covered as a 5.5-point favorite as the Over (227.5) cashed. The Grizzlies were led by F Jaren Jackson Jr., who tallied a game-high 30 points. Magic star F Paolo Banchero scored 26 points to lead his side.<\/p>\n<p class=\"gnt_ar_b_p\">Orlando has won 2 straight games and 6 of its last 10, having gone just 4-6 against the spread (ATS) in that span. It is 16-25 ATS on the season.<\/p>\n<p class=\"gnt_ar_b_p\">Memphis has won just 2 of its last 9 games, going 3-6 ATS.

The Magic (-170) have been too inconsistent to take, and the Grizzlies (+140) are better played on the spread.<\/p>\n<p class=\"gnt_ar_b_p\">BET GRIZZLIES +3.5 (-105).<\/p>\n<p class=\"gnt_ar_b_p\">The Magic are one of the worst teams in the NBA following a win. They are 7-15 ATS after a victory. They are just 3-5 ATS in their last 8 games as a favorite as well.<\/p>\n<p class=\"gnt_ar_b_p\">The Grizzlies are 3-3 ATS in their previous 6 games as an underdog. Their defense has improved as of late, holding 5 straight opponents to 118 points or fewer.<\/p>\n<p class=\"gnt_ar_b_p\">Take GRIZZLIES +3.5 (-105).<\/p>\n<p class=\"gnt_ar_b_p\">BET OVER 231.5 (-105).<\/p>\n<p class=\"gnt_ar_b_p\">Both of these teams are willing to push the tempo. The Magic rank 16th and the Grizzlies rank 10th in pace, suggesting there should be ample scoring opportunities.<\/p>\n<p class=\"gnt_ar_b_p\">Memphis has gone Over in 2 of its previous 3 contests. Similarly, the Magic are 4-3 O\/U in their last 7 games and have allowed at least 118 points in 4 of those.
