Memphis Grizzlies vs Philadelphia 76ers Prediction

The Philadelphia 76ers have been a mess this season and aren’t a team I’m excited to be back in my favorite role. However, the 76ers are getting Healthier and there’s even a chance Maxey returns as he’s listed as questionable. The Memphis Grizzlies are on the end of a back-to-back and that’s likely going to be hell for a team without Morant, Smart, Jackson, Edey, and others. We’re laying a bucket. Give me the 76ers.
