Two of the league’s youngest cores clash this Sunday as the Pacers host the Grizzlies at Gainbridge Fieldhouse and bet365 is here to make sure you don’t miss out on all of the action. Just sign up for a bet365 account using the promo code DEADXBT and place a qualifying wager of at least $5 on any Pacers-Grizzlies betting market to get as much as $200 in bonus bets win or lose. The Grizzlies draw first blood in the season series so expect the Pacers to come out firing and eager to even the score but the good thing is bet365 has got you covered either way.
Turnovers and points in the paint were the story when these two teams last faced as the Grizzlies did not only take good care of the ball but also dominated down low by outscoring the Pacers 56-36 inside. To stay competitive this time around, the Pacers will need to take this game possession by possession and avoid giving the Grizzlies easy opportunities through careless mistakes.
The one-two scoring punch of Pascal Siakam and Andrew Nembhard will be key for the Pacers here as they try to challenge the Grizzlies’ defensive pressure. The 31-year old Siakam was only limited to 13 points last time versus the Grizzlies so expect him to come out more aggressive this time and look for high-percentage opportunities. Nembhard, on the other hand, sat out with an injury though he has been a revelation since his return with the 26-year old Canadian guard averaging 17.2 points on 44.1% shooting from the field.
The Grizzlies, on the other hand, will look to replicate their performance although that could prove a bit more challenging without Jaren Jackson Jr. who was traded during the deadline. They will also be without Ja Morant who remains on the injured list which is why it’s important for guys like GG Jackson II and Jaylen Wells to fill in the void here. Jackson II will have to assert himself in the paint and try to provide help on defense. How well Jackson II and Wells do could prove crucial for the Grizzlies to remain within striking distance here late.
