Preview

Memphis Grizzlies travel to New Orleans Pelicans in a matchup where the simulation leans clearly toward the visitors. Zion Williamson has a 49% chance of exceeding 29 points, rebounds and assists for New Orleans, while Ty Jerome sits at 47% for Memphis—a near-even proposition between the teams' primary engines. The difference lies in depth: Cameron Boozer and Cam Spencer, both at 49%, give Memphis multiple scoring threats the Pelicans cannot match across their rotation.
