Los Angeles at Memphis

The new-look Lakers are far from full strength for this one. DeAngelo Russell is hobbled by an ankle injury and is listed as doubtful, and LeBron James has been ruled out with a foot injury. Making things worse is that Anthony Davis also has a foot injury and should play, but might be limited. Memphis is healthy, and their game has found a groove. The Grizzlies stumbled through a 1-8 stretch but are 4-2 since. The timing is good here as the Grizzlies resemble the team we saw prior to the nine-game skid, and the Lakers are missing too many key pieces. Make the play on Memphis.
