Through 3 Quarters

The Memphis Grizzlies are giving their home crowd exactly what it was hoping to see. After three quarters it's looking more and more like their high-powered offense is just too much for the Philadelphia 76ers as Memphis lead 101-77.

The top scorers for the Grizzlies have been small forward Dillon Brooks (23 points) and power forward Jaren Jackson Jr. (22 points). Dillon Brooks is close to surpassing his season high of 25.

Philadelphia has been relying on the performance of point guard Tyrese Maxey, who has 23 points and seven assists.

Halftime deficits have spelled doom for the 76ers, who haves lost 77% of the games in which they were down going into the the fourth quarter.

Memphis is expected to lose this next one by 3. However, those who like betting on the underdog should be happy to hear that they are 7-0 against the spread when expected to lose.

Memphis is now 16-11 while Philadelphia sits at 15-12. A couple stats to keep an eye on: The Grizzlies enter the contest with 10.26 steals per game on average, which is the best in the league.
