Mavericks vs. Grizzlies Game Info
Dallas Mavericks (29-24, 16-12 Away) vs. Memphis Grizzlies (27-25, 13-15Â Home)
Date: Wednesday, April 14, 2021
Time: 9:30 p.m. EST
Venue: FedExForum — Memphis, Tenn.
Coverage: ESPN
The Mavericks have really struggled with consistency. They have lost three of their past four games. However, the win was against the Bucks, and the win prior was against the Jazz. Dallas is more than capable of competing with anyone, but it fully depends on which Mavs team shows up today. They lost by 18 against the 76ers last game, with Kristaps Porzingis out. Porzingis is expected back today, and Awesemo projects him to score over 20 points and possibly get a double-double. When discussing Dallas’ inconsistency, you can look at the play of Luka Doncic and see why. He has had no less than four turnovers over the past eight games. Doncic has also shot as well as 73.3% and as poor as 34.6%. Today Awesemo projects Doncic to score over 28 points and dish over eight assists.
After winning five of six games, the Grizzlies have now lost two of their past three. While this team does not appear to be a threat in the West, Jonas Valanciunas has alone been a threat over the past couple weeks. During the month of April, Valanciunas has averages 22 points on 68.4% shooting, 13.4 rebounds and 1.3 blocks per game. However, Awesemo projects him to be the third-highest scorer on Memphis today. The Grizzlies lost on the road to Dallas last time these teams met.

Mavericks vs. Grizzlies Prediction
While Memphis has been average all season long, they are 17-11 against the spread at home this season. However, Dallas is 10-5 against the spread as a road favorite and 16-12 on the road overall. They get Porzingis back tonight and they should be able to match up pretty well against Memphis. I like the Mavs to bounce back after back-to-back losses.
Prediction: Mavericks -2
