MEM vs GSW Dream11 Prediction NBA Live Fantasy Basketball Dream11 Team, Top Picks and Tips for Memphis Grizzlies vs Golden State Warriors

MEM vs GSW Dream11: As we gear towards the NBA Playoffs, the battle for the Playoffs spot is only going to heat up further, this is a tricky period where we have to take into account which team will end up where because there are a lot of ups and downs that are still occurring in the league. The Western Conference has seen Phoenix Suns attain a superior advantage and then there are the two teams that are ranked below them in Memphis Grizzlies and the Golden State Warriors will meet here.

The Grizzlies have been the second-best team in the league and they keep on solidifying their second position. They have continued to pile on wins despite missing Ja Morant and the team has continued to showcase their depth night in and night out. There is no doubt that the team is one of the favorites in the title race.

On the other hand, the Warriors have lost the plot especially after losing Curry. They have somehow latched on to the third spot in the West but their positioning hasn’t been wholly convincing because some of the teams even way below them have had better returns than them for a long time. In this game, they will rest Thompson, Porter Jr., and Green… Ouch!

Host: Memphis Grizzlies
Visitors: Golden State Warriors

NBA Projections, Stats & Analysis

The Grizzlies handed a big defeat to the Bucks, winning 127:102 as DeAnthony Melton and Desmond Bane both scored 20 or more.

The Grizzlies have been picking up the heat once again and their current winning run is easily reminiscent of the December winning run the team went on without Morant, which helped spark the special season. It was this same unit of Bane, Brooks, Jones, Jackson, Adams, Anderson, and Melton that was hammering opponents during that period and they have continued to do so again. A large credit belongs to Jackson and Adams, who have been doing a great job on the defensive end and the team limited Giannis to 11/30 shooting in the last game. This means that the teams can face a lot of heat from Memphis during the Playoffs because they are reaching with multiple shot creators while also having a top-notch defense. So, how far will they carry the current form forward?

The Warriors continued their horrendous run, losing 115:123 against the Warriors despite Wiggins, Poole, and Thompson, each scoring 20+ points.

The Warriors are having a sub-par second half of the season and after they lost their way with Draymond Green’s absence, his return coincided with the injury of Stephen Curry. However, Green hasn’t been the same since his return either, he is turning the ball over quite a bit and his defense is nowhere near as it was before the injury. The Warriors were the only team not to allow 110 points during any game for a long time but now even sub-par offenses are taking advantage of them. This fall from grace can hurt their Playoffs chances and despite having a deep team, Steve Kerr has been unable to figure out the combinations. Are Warriors’ chances of making a deep Playoffs run dwindling?

Guard Desmond has been doing a great job of keeping the offensive end ticking with his ability to shoot from the perimeter. The Guard can be expected to be in the 24-30 points range. The big can be chosen as a Star/Pro Player in the Dream 11 NBA Fantasy scenario.
Expected Fantasy Points Range: 30-48

Jordan Poole(GSW)
Points: 26
Rebounds: 06
Assists: 02

Poole has gotten the job done without Curry in the fray, doing a great job of nailing a bunch of shots regularly. The Guard has mostly been in 24-30 points, 4-6 rebounds, and 3-6 assists range.

Jaren Jackson Jr(MEM)
Points: 16
Rebounds: 06
Assists: 00
Blocks: 02

Power Forward Jaren has been an athletic presence on both ends of the floor and he is surely a candidate for the Defensive Player of the Year Award. The Forward has mostly been in 15-20 points, 6-10 rebounds, and 1-3 blocks range mostly. He is QUESTIONABLE for this contest.
Expected Fantasy Points Range: 25-35

Steven Adams(MEM)
Points: 04

Assists: 05
Blocks: 02
Steals: 01
Center Steven Adams is one of the best rebounders in the league, a serviceable defender and hustle player while also an impressive passer. He is mostly in 5-7 points, 11-16 rebounds, 3-6 assists, and 1-3 steal/blocks range.
Expected Fantasy Points Range: 22-30

Andrew Wiggins(GSW)
Points: 23

Wing Andrew has been a bit down in terms of production but he remains a huge factor on both ends of the floor. I expect a 19-24 points range from him.

Jonathan Kuminga(GSW)
Points: 04
