Memphis vs Chicago Stats
Memphis Grizzlies
Before Friday's results, the Memphis Grizzlies improved to 9-7 with a 117-111 home victory over the Philadelphia 76ers. Jaren Jackson Jr. scored 25 points, Desmond Bane added 21 points and 10 rebounds, and Jaylen Wells contributed 14 points. Coach Taylor Jenkins became the winningest coach in Grizzlies history with 215 victories. Memphis had struggled with their 3-point shooting, but Bane had a strong game with 3-pointers. Ja Morant has missed the last five games, but imaging done on Monday showed no further damage. Scotty Pippen, Luke Kennard, Jaylen Wells, and Marcus Smart may see increased playing time in Morant's absence. As of now, Memphis is ranked 4th in offense, 15th in defense, and has a 9-7 record for the season. Their statistics in shooting percentages, rebounds, assists, and turnovers are also detailed.
Chicago Bulls Analysis
The Chicago Bulls are facing the Atlanta Hawks on Friday night, coming off a loss to the Milwaukee Bucks two nights ago. Despite a strong performance from Zach Lavine, who scored 27 points, the team struggled to contain Giannis Antetokuompo, ultimately losing the game. Lavine has shown improved offensive efficiency this season, shooting well from both the field and three-point range. The Bulls have a power ranking of 21 and are ranked 10th for offense but 29th for defense. They have a record of 7-10 and 8-9 against the spread. In terms of offensive stats, the Bulls shoot well from the field, free-throw line, and three-point range, but struggle on defense, allowing high percentages in field goals and free throws. They will need to improve their defensive performance to compete against Memphis in their upcoming games.
Bulls Look to Bounce Back Against Hawks After Loss to Bucks
The Chicago Bulls are scheduled to face the Atlanta Hawks on Friday night as part of a back-to-back schedule. In their recent game against the Milwaukee Bucks, the Bulls suffered a 122-106 loss with Zach Lavine leading the team by scoring 27 points. Lavine has consistently performed well for the Bulls, maintaining a shooting percentage of 51.2% from the field and 42.9% from three-point range in his last eight games since November. Comparatively, the Memphis Grizzlies have a three-point shooting percentage of 34.1% this season, ranking 22nd in the NBA. This percentage drops slightly when playing away games. Anticipating a strong response from the Bulls, I recommend taking Chicago to emerge victorious in this upcoming match.
