Utah Jazz vs Memphis Grizzlies odds, starters, injury reports, predictions
Predicting a Utah Jazz win in any circumstance is a difficult task lately. Against the Memphis Grizzlies, it would typically be be a fool’s errand. With that said, Ja Morant’s absence gives the Jazz a puncher’s chance.
The Jazz (46-32) could certainly use a statement win in this contest. Just don’t expect the Grizzlies (55-23) to hand them one. In stark contrast to the Jazzmen, these Grizzlies look like a cohesive unit with a singular goal. No two players on this team seem virtually unwilling to pass to each other.
That feels like a pretty big advantage.

Utah Jazz vs Memphis Grizzlies Prediction
It feels like the wheels are falling off in Salt Lake City. Getting a win over anything resembling a quality opponent has suddenly become an unattainable goal for the Jazzmen. The Grizzlies, even in Morant’s absence, are a quality opponent.
In fact, some would argue they’re more dangerous without their star point guard. That’s a can of worms we won’t entirely open (in short, we don’t agree). Still, it’s worth noting that the Grizzlies are an astonishing 20-2 in games Morant has missed this year.
Look for them to make is 21-2 against a reeling Utah Jazz club tonight.
Prediction: Grizzlies 118, Jazz 106
