Nba Point Spread Tomorrow
When the Rockets and Grizzlies last met on Thursday, Feb. 4 in Memphis, Houston won in a rout, finishing a 7-1 stretch for the road team. Veteran guard John Wall led the way with 22 points and 8 assists, while rookie forward Jae’Sean Tate scored a career-high 19 points.

Only six of the Suns’ 16 road games have finished over, and the Lakers’ last three games failed to reach the 215.5-point projection set for tomorrow night. The Suns have one of the lowest paces of play on offense in the NBA and the Lakers are just outside the bottom-third.
Oh, how things have changed. Since then, the Rockets are 0-10 — tracing back to the right ankle sprain that star center Christian Wood suffered in the second half of that game versus the Grizzlies. At 11-20, the Rockets have the worst record in the Southwest Division (where Memphis ranks third) and the second-worst in the Western Conference.
Meanwhile, Ja Morant and the Grizzlies (14-15) are in possession of the No. 10 spot in the West, which would put them in position to earn the final spot of the play-in tournament for the 2021 playoffs. Thus, if Houston wants to keep hope alive of eventually getting back into the mix, Sunday’s game at Toyota Center would be a crucial one to win.
The bad news for the Rockets is it’s the front end of a back-to-back, with Cleveland set to visit Houston on Monday night. Because of that, veteran guard Victor Oladipo will sit Sunday for planned maintenance. Eric Gordon is likely to start in Oladipo’s place.

Advice and prediction
Memphis enters with three losses in its last four games, with all three coming by double digits. Thus, the Grizzlies will be highly motivated to make amends and hold their position for a potential play-in spot.
