Memphis has been much improved since earlier in the season as it has won five of its last nine games and is 6-3 ATS in that span. The Grizzlies ran into a buzzsaw on Monday when the Spurs shot an astounding 67.4 percent, but the Thunder won't come close to that in this matchup. The Grizzlies normally allow opponents a .467 field goal percentage, and they have covered the number six of their last eight games following an ATS loss. Also, Memphis has covered four of its last five after losing by at least 10 points its previous game, and Oklahoma City is 1-6 ATS its last seven versus teams with .400 or below winning percentages. The Grizzlies are 4-1 ATS the last five meetings, and they lost 126-122 as 6.5-point underdogs against the Thunder on Dec. 18. Play the Grizzlies.
