Golden State at Memphis

Golden State will try to slow down the Grizzlies, who have won nine in a row, but they will be playing their third game in four days (the first two were on the road against the Clippers and Lakers). The Warriors played one of their best defensive games of the season in beating Cleveland, 96-82, on Sunday, but the big news was the return of Klay Thompson, who scored 17 points in 20 minutes. Stephen Curry scored 29 points as the Warriors are slowly heading back to full strength, and with no current COVID issues. Golden State avenged an earlier loss to the Grizzlies with a 113-104 victory on Dec. 23, and the Warriors are 12-2 ATS their past 14 games versus .600 or better opponents. They are also 14-5-1 ATS after winning by at least 10 points their previous game and 18-8-2 ATS overall as favorites. Play the Warriors.
