Memphis Grizzlies at Dallas Mavericks Preview & Picks

Dallas are tipped to cover the spread as a double digit underdog.

The Mavericks are dealing with a bunch of injuries right now, but Memphis are on a terrible run and have rarely covered in the past few weeks.

  • Memphis Grizzlies are on a 4-game losing run
  • Memphis Grizzlies are 1-8-1 ATS in their last 10 games
  • The Under has cashed in 5 of Dallas' last  games
  • The Under has hit in 7 of the previous 9 meetings

Head To Head

  • Dallas Mavericks lead the all-time series 80-38
  • Memphis Grizzlies won 119-104 when the two teams last met on January 6

Memphis Grizzlies Form

Memphis head to Dallas looking to kick-start their season after losing eight of their last 10 games and each of the last four.

This rough run began on the road as the Grizzlies were beaten 128-114 by the LA Clippers, before heading to Indiana for a 127-113 loss to the Pacers.

They then edged Orlando 105-104, only to wrap up the road trip with a 129-123 defeat when they visited Cleveland.

Memphis enjoyed a winning homecoming as they beat Phoenix in overtime, 151-148, but they again failed to follow up a win as they lost four straight at the FedEx Forum.

The Grizzlies lost 114-113 to New York, 130-128 to San Antonio, 132-130 to Atlanta and 120-103 to Oklahoma City.

Dallas Mavericks Form

Dallas also go into this game on a miserable run of form, having lost five of their last six games and each of the last three.

The Mavericks returned from the All-Star break with a 111-103 win over New Orleans that took their winning run to three games, but it has largely been all downhill ever since.

Their run was ended on the road as they were beaten 126-102 at Golden State and 107-99 by the Los Angeles Lakers.

Dallas rebounded when they returned home to beat Charlotte 103-96, but they have not won since then.

The Mavericks were beaten 132-117 by Milwaukee and 122-98 by Sacramento at home, before heading to Milwaukee for a 137-107 blowout loss to the Bucks.

Verdict

Memphis are the much healthier team heading into this, but they are mired in a slump right now.

The Grizzlies have covered the spread just once in their last 10 games too, so give us the Mavericks and the free buckets.
