Memphis has won and covered the past three meetings, including a 132-97 blowout on Sunday. Six scorers were in double figures, led by Lamar Stevens with 31 points. Dallas went 5-for-28 from 3-point distance. The Grizzlies came close to defeating Golden State on Tuesday before losing 121-116 and covering the 6.5-point spread. Desmond Bane scored 30 points and Ja Morant 22 for Memphis, which had won four of its final six regular-season games. The Mavericks are 0-5 ATS in their past five games against teams with winning records, and they have covered only two of their past eight games overall. Dallas got hot against Sacramento and went 14-for-28 on 3-point tries, but that is unlikely to occur in consecutive games. The Mavericks average 36.6 percent from beyond the arc. Lay the points with the Grizzlies.
