to be available on both nights of a back to back for the first time this season. The Grizzlies (22-13) are 14-3 at home. The Sacramento Kings will be in Memphis for the second time this season on Sunday night.
The Memphis Grizzlies will continue their stretch against Western Conferences foes, as they take on the "Beam Team" Sacramento Kings.
Steven Adams and Domantas Sabonis are two of the best rebounders in the league — the Grizzly leads the NBA in offensive rebounding (4.9 per game), and the King in total rebounds (12.3). Desmond Bane and Kevin Huerter are absolute firecrackers for 3, both possessing the ability to drain 3’s in a variety of ways and from any spot on the floor. For the Kings in particular, they aren’t afraid to fire from deep from anywhere, especially in transition — as they are 7th in both 3’s made and attempts, 13.2/37.1. For starters, both teams love to get out in transition — as the Grizzlies rank 3rd (17.6) in fastbreak scoring, and the Kings (16.0). The Sacramento Kings are 2nd in the league in scoring average (118.3). Prediction: As of this writing, I don’t know the Grizzlies’ rest plans with 3 games in 4 nights. The Grizzlies play well with pace, as they rank 10th in the league in that department. If the Grizzlies can make the Kings play their game, it should help them identify holes within the defense and generate clean scoring chances. The Kings are 22nd in Defensive Rating (113.9). Looking to return to the playoffs for the first time in nearly 2 decades, the Kings have became the Western Conference’s “feel good” story. It’s just the beginning of a stretch run towards the playoffs. (G-league, Two Way), Jake LaRavia (G-league, On Assignment), David Roddy (G-league, On Assignment)

We go over some of the best betting options for Sunday's matchup between the Sacramento Kings and Memphis Grizzlies.
The Kings have hit the over in their last two and four of their last six. The Grizzlies have trended to the under of late and might have some tired legs on the second night of a back-to-back set but Sacramento should be able to do most of the heavy lifting for the over to hit again. The Kings logged a pair of one-point wins to close out 2022, while the Grizzlies rang in the new year with a victory over the Pelicans Saturday.
