MEM vs TOR Dream11 Team Prediction, NBA Regular Season: MEM vs TOR Dream11 Basketball Match Season match-up: The Memphis Grizzlies will enter the contest after losing a 9-point battle against the New Orleans Pelicans, in a game where Jonas Valinciunas clasped 23 points. On the other hand, the Toronto Raptors are also coming off a loss at the hands of Atlanta Hawks, in a game where their bench player had a career-night, getting hold of 29 points and 10 rebounds. The Grizzlies are at the .500 mark right now and have performed admirably considering injuries that they have suffered. The Grizzlies have shown considerable grit so far and will like to make a Playoffs run with their young PG Ja Morant at the helm. Memphis is also trying Xavier Tillman at Center showcasing that they are building a foundation through young talents for the future.
The Toronto Raptors have been inconsistent and struggled to put together a win -streak so far. However, their play is better than early January and they have picked up some impressive wins too, like the one against the Brooklyn Nets last week. For the Raptors, Chris Boucher has emerged as a strong player off the bench, who provides energy on both ends of the floor. The Raptors have a lot of tools and they are still seated as the 9th seed in the NBA Eastern Conference, which implies that they still have time to figure out their combinations and make a decent run.

MEM vs TOR Dream11 Match Prediction
The Grizzlies are short-handed and will need to delve deep into the bench to find some production. The Guard battle can turn into an interesting one with Fred Van Vleet and Ja Morant turning up the heat against each other. The Raps have more depth in this match because they are more injury-free than the Grizzlies. However, Toronto must watch out for players like Kyle Anderson and Dillon Brooks who have supplemented the Grizzlies well since the season has started. The Grizzlies can surprise the best teams so the Raptors must adopt a cautious approach in this game. The Raptors have a tremendous bench player in Chris Boucher, who has the potential to become a starter in this League and the Grizzlies have to control him to limit Raptors‘ production as a unit. The Grizzlies are one of the top ten defensive squads in the League so the Raptors will have to work hard at the offensive end.

Memphis Grizzlies vs Toronto Raptors, Key Players:
Fred VanVleet
PPG: 20.2
APG: 6.2
RPG: 4.4
SPG: 1.8
Fred has been a revelation for the Raptors at the offensive end and his iron-will at his diminutive size poses a lot of problems for the opposing squads. His shooting chops are augmented with great control over the ball as he has impressive assists to turnover ratio indicating how he has fared with the ball in his hands. Fred had a spectacular night against the Hawks, piling up 25 points, 10 assists, 6 rebounds, and 2 steals in the loss. Fred can be chosen as the Super-Player option in the Dream11 Fantasy basketball setup.
