Memphis at Minnesota

Memphis is off to a surprisingly good start with a 9-5 record, both straight up and ATS, and it has covered the number four of the last five meetings with the Timberwolves. The Grizzlies have won four of their last five overall following Friday's, 112-104, victory over Sacramento when rookie Jaren Jackson, Jr. scored 27 points and Marc Gasol added 19 points and 15 rebounds. That followed an impressive road win at Milwaukee two days earlier when the Grizzlies shot nearly 50 percent from the field. Minnesota has played much better since resolving the Jimmy Butler situation and comes off a 112-96 win over Portland as Andrew Wiggins scored a team-leading 23 points. However, Memphis is 9-2 ATS its last 11 games versus the Northwest Division and 11-3 ATS with one day of rest dating to last season. Look for this one to go to the wire. Grab the points with the Grizzlies.
