Spurs Look to Extend Home Dominance Against Surging Grizzlies
San Antonio, TX – The San Antonio Spurs (13-6) will look to continue their strong home record (8-2) tonight against the Memphis Grizzlies (9-12) in a Western Conference showdown. The Spurs are coming off a loss to the Timberwolves but will be favored despite missing star rookie Victor Wembanyama (injury). Memphis enters the game on a three-game winning streak, though their record against teams above .500 stands at a dismal 1-12. Ja Morant remains sidelined for the Grizzlies.
DraftKings Sportsbook lists the Spurs as 5.5-point favorites. Sports Illustrated senior editor Peter Dewey predicts a Spurs victory, citing their success at home and the Grizzlies’ struggles against strong opponents. He also highlights De’Aaron Fox of the Spurs as a prime player prop target, anticipating a big scoring night due to Wembanyama’s absence and Memphis’s defensive vulnerabilities against point guards. In the seven games Wembanyama has missed Fox is averaging 26.1 points per game.
While both teams are missing key players, the Spurs, led by Fox, Keldon Johnson, and Devin Vassell, appear poised to defend their home court.
