The Memphis Grizzlies (39-24) are set to face off against the New Orleans Pelicans (17-47) in a Sunday night showdown that promises to be charged with intensity, given the divisional rivalry between these two teams. The game will tip off at 7:00 PM ET on March 9, 2025, at Smoothie King Center, the Pelicans' home arena.

Despite being on the road, the Grizzlies enter this game as significant favorites, currently favored by 8.5 points. The Moneyline reflects this sentiment, with Memphis at -360 and New Orleans at +295, suggesting an implied win probability of 76% for the Grizzlies, compared to just 24% for the Pelicans. Memphis has been playing solid basketball, winning 32 of their last 50 games, and is coming off a victory against the Dallas Mavericks, winning 122-111.

Meanwhile, the New Orleans Pelicans are struggling, having lost 37 of their last 50 games. They are also facing a challenging situation as this matchup marks a back-to-back game, following a heavy defeat to the Houston Rockets, where they fell 146-117. The lack of rest could be detrimental to the Pelicans’ chances against a more rested and favored Grizzlies squad.
