Memphis Grizzlies vs Orlando Magic Prediction

Both the Grizzlies and Magic are on the end of back to backs, and I’d usually lean toward the home team in this spot. The problem is the Grizzlies remain one of the more banged up teams in the NBA with legit rotation players still out. You frequently feel that the most when playing the second Game in as many days. The Orlando Magic have the edge given Health is on their side, and we’re not being asked to lay much. Give me the Magic on Saturday.
