MEM vs ATL Dream11 Team Prediction, Fantasy Basketball Tips for NBA Preseason, Memphis Grizzlies vs Atlanta Hawks,18 December

MEM vs. ATL Dream 11 Team Prediction, NBA Preseason: MEM vs ATL Dream11 Basketball Match Season match-up: Memphis Grizzlies are going through a rebuilding phase, this season for them is about tapping out young talent and build a long-term platform under the leadership of athletic and exciting Ja Morant, who led the team in scoring last year with 17.3 PPG. On the other hand, Atlanta Hawks are also going through the same rebuilding process but have a very exciting pairing of the deep shooting Trae Young, a promising Jaren Jackson, who had a breakout 2019-20 season. Memphis comes into this preseason game with a 2-0 record and the Hawks enter with a 1-1 record, but preseason Wins and Losses really don’t hold much meaning. This game will be about setting up rosters for the Regular Season and identifying what combinations work under which circumstances. Although both teams may end up struggling this season, any game with the likes of Ja Morant and Trae Young can be an exciting one.

Memphis Grizzlies vs Atlanta Hawks, Key Players:

Trae Young-  The young three-point machine is an automatic pick for the Super Player. He piled up 21 points and dished out 7 assists in Atlanta’s win over Magic and is always a double-double threat. Although the 8 turnovers he committed were a bit too much but he is expected to improve upon that in this Dream11 Fantasy Match-up.

John Collins- Young John is always a double-double threat as he finished the last season with an average of 21.3 PPG and 10.3 RPG. In his last outing against Magic, he scored 13 points and snatched 11 boards. The young big is always an interesting pick and can enrich the Fantasy numbers.

Ja Morant- Young, emerging, and highlight material Ja will always be an enticing pick. He is an all-around player, clear from his last game display of 17 points, 7 assists, and 7 rebounds, in addition to 2 steals. He was also crisp with his game as he didn’t commit any turnover. He is a total package indeed.

Jonas Valanciunas: The Lithuanian big man has been a consistent contributor since his Toronto days. He led the Grizzlies in scoring during their outing against Magic with 22 points, he also dished 5 assists while blocking 2 shots. He is expected to repeat the same with his chops for the game.

Sleeper Picks- Clint Capela: The Atlanta Hawks big man is always in the hunt for a double-double so his selection can boost the overall stats. He finished with 12 points, 12 rebounds and didn’t turn the ball over even once in the outing against Magic.

Dillon Brooks: Up-and-coming Brooks was impressive all over the boards for Grizzlies as he collected 21 points, 6 rebounds, and dished out 4 assists. In addition to those incredible numbers, he also managed to lay his hands on two steals.

Kyle Anderson: The versatile and slow-mo Kyle for the Memphis managed 16 points grabbed 8 boards and dished out 3 assists. He also was able to block 1 shot during his last performance.

Memphis Grizzlies vs. Atlanta Hawks Match Prediction
While Grizzlies have won their first two encounters and look like a better-rounded roster than the Hawks, Preseason games tend to focus more on bringing out combinations that will be useful during the Regular Season. Both of the coaches will like to distribute minutes here so they can learn which bench players can contribute during the Regular Season. This skirmish will be more about shaping up the roster, loosening up the players, and prepare for the real battle that commences once the Regular Season begins. The game can swing both ways and there is not much to look into it that way.
