| Memphis Grizzlies | -210 |

Memphis Grizzlies
The Memphis Grizzlies didn’t try very hard to win basketball games last season. Ja Morant and several other key players were shut down before the All-Star break, while a group of G-League level players went out there and played out the rest of the year. This season, Morant is back and the Grizzlies are in the thick of the Southwest Division race because of the improved health of this team that has its eyes on competing for a Western Conference title along with the division title.
Houston Rockets
Last year’s Houston Rockets were a respectable basketball team, finishing 41-41 for the season. The Rockets have looked much better than that to start this season. Houston has a toughness and an edge to them that makes them very difficult to deal with in the regular season. As a result, they could end up finishing ahead of Memphis and everyone else in this division as their defense will be a force to be reckoned with.
Dallas Mavericks
The Dallas Mavericks finished last season at the top of the Southwest Division, winning the Western Conference title after that. But this year, the Mavericks are not expected to win much of anything. They traded Luka Doncic to the Los Angeles Lakers for Anthony Davis, who immediately got hurt. Now the Mavs are just trying to put together a respectable end to their season in hopes of getting hot at the right time in the postseason.
San Antonio Spurs
The San Antonio Spurs finished with the second-worst record in the Western Conference this past season. They managed to add another solid piece in the draft as a result of all those losses, adding Stephon Castle to a roster that already features Victor Wembanyama on it. San Antonio is moving in the right direction in the Western Conference, adding De’Aaron Fox at the trade deadline as they look to snag a spot in the play-in tournament.
New Orleans Pelicans
New Orleans finished in second place in the Southwest Division, advancing to the playoffs via the play-in tournament last year. But they are one of the worst teams in the NBA this season. Injuries to key players like Zion Williamson and CJ McCollum have made it very difficult for this group to have success in what has become a long year in the Crescent City. Trading Brandon Ingram to Toronto signaled that this team is no longer looking to compete, at least until next season.
