LOSS

This is a tough scheduling stretch for Memphis, playing its 7th road game over the last 10 games here and the start of a three-game trip. The Grizzlies are 4-10 ATS in their last 14 road games, 4-11 ATS in their last 15 games as an underdog. They just finished up a long West Coast trip too, and the Grizzlies are 0-7 ATS in their last seven road games against a team with a winning home record. It has taken a toll, riding a 1-4 SU/ATS run with the offense struggling. That offense faces a first-place Atlanta squad that is fourth in the NBA in points allowed (90.6 points per game), a big factor in their improvement. The Hawks are 5-0-1 ATS in their last six games as a favorite and the Grizzlies are 2-8 ATS in the last 10 meetings, including a poor 1-5 ATS in the last six meetings in Atlanta. Play the Atlanta Hawks. In addition, look for a low-scoring game with the road weary Memphis offense scoring 91 or less during its four-game skid. The UNDER is 10-1 in the Grizzlies’ last 11 road games. The UNDER is 6-0 in the Hawks’ last six against the Western Conference and 20-7 UNDER the total in their last 27 games as a favorite of -0.5 to -4.5. Play Atlanta and the Grizzlies/Hawks UNDER the total.
