Memphis is on a 10-game win streak but they are in a tricky spot tonight. The Grizzlies are coming off a big win over Golden State and have Dallas coming to town tomorrow making tonight's meeting with Minnesota a sandwich game 🥪. The streak could really come to an end tonight making the T'Wolves a target play.

The Nets could also be in trouble playing their 4th game in five nights and won't have Kyrie Irving being back in New York while Golden State and Milwaukee meet up while both are struggling.

Tonight's Key NBA Matchups

Warriors @ Bucks (-1.5) , O/U 223.5 7:30 ET

The Bucks only managed 114 and 103 points the last two games against the league's 2nd worst scoring defense in Charlotte. Golden State has also been held under 100 points in three of their last four so this contest could have disappointment written all over it.

Timberwolves @ Grizzlies (-5), O/U 230.5 8:00 ET

Memphis is in a sandwich game and it's a great spot for the Timberwolves who have scored 125+ in three straight games. Are the Grizzlies just playing too well right now though? Either way, it looks like the target game of the night with the only betting total in the 230s

Clippers @ Pelicans (-3), O/U 214 8:00 ET

The LAC defense has clamped down allowing an average of 89 points the last two games so it might be hard for Brandon Ingram to hit 55+ fp for the third time in the last four games for the Pelicans.

Thunder @ Nets (-9), O/U 217 8:30 ET

Big letdown game for Brooklyn tonight after demolishing Chicago 138-112 last night in a matchup of the top two teams in the Eastern Conference. The Nets are now without Kyrie Irving back at home and playing their 4th game in the last five nights. The big win over the Bulls did help Steve Nash preserve some minutes but that's a lot of basketball lately.

Trail Blazers @ Nuggets (9), O/U 215 10:00 ET

Denver is going to come out pretty fired up here (you'd think) after blowing a 25-point lead in an 87-85 loss to the Clippers on Tuesday night. Not only does Portland continue to deal with the absences of Damian Lillard and CJ McCollum, but now Norman Powell is in protocols and Anfernee Simons is out for personal reasons.
