Memphis arrives after a 20-point opening win while Golden State must regroup from a 22-point loss in Los Angeles. The Warriors swept last season's meetings, but injury concerns and a reshaped Grizzlies backcourt change the handicap.

Injury Report
Golden State enters with major availability questions after Jimmy Butler, Moses Moody and Kristaps Porzingis missed the opener. Brandin Podziemski and Charles Bassey also appeared on injury listings, while Stephen Curry carried an ankle designation but played against the Lakers. Memphis listed Isaiah Stewart with an ankle issue around its opener. Check the official pregame report for updated designations, especially the Warriors' perimeter depth and interior rotation.
Key Players
Key Matchup Edge
Memphis can test Golden State's depleted interior and wing depth with size and downhill pressure. The Warriors allowed 127 points in their opener, but Curry provides the best proven perimeter counterweight. The betting question is whether the Grizzlies' energized offense can sustain efficiency against a defense with more preparation time.
3 Things to Watch
- Jerome usage after his 45-point opener
- Warriors interior defense and rebound containment
- Curry ankle status and shooting volume
Betting Breakdown
Memphis visits Chase Center on Friday, October 23, with the NBA listing tipoff for 10:00 PM ET. The Grizzlies opened 2026-27 with a 123-103 victory over Utah, while Golden State fell 127-105 at the Lakers. Those contrasting results should drive early handicapping interest, but an opening-night sample can exaggerate both teams' true levels. Memphis is retooling around a fresh roster after moving on from Ja Morant, Desmond Bane and Jaren Jackson Jr. Ty Jerome delivered 45 points in the opener, giving Golden State a clear primary perimeter assignment. Zach Edey and Cameron Boozer also present different size and scoring challenges. The Warriors still have Stephen Curry, who scored 23 points in 21 minutes versus Los Angeles, but the surrounding rotation is dealing with significant absences. Golden State swept Memphis last season, including a 133-112 win in February, yet personnel changes limit how strongly that historical edge should be weighted. Focus on turnover creation, paint protection and the Warriors' shooting response before deciding whether either side merits spread support.
Memphis Betting Outlook
Memphis starts its first road test with confidence after beating Utah by 20 points. Jerome's 45-point opener puts his shot creation and ball handling at the center of Golden State's scouting plan. The Grizzlies also have developing frontcourt options in Edey and rookie Cameron Boozer, who can challenge a Warriors rotation missing established depth. The biggest betting concern is sustainability: a breakout shooting performance against Utah does not guarantee similar efficiency on the road. Memphis needs to control turnovers, secure defensive rebounds and keep Curry from dictating late-clock possessions. Its fast start makes the matchup compelling, but the roster overhaul creates meaningful uncertainty.
Golden State Betting Outlook
Golden State comes home needing a defensive reset after a 127-105 defeat to the Lakers. Curry produced 23 points despite playing only 21 minutes, so his workload and ankle management deserve close attention. Jimmy Butler, Moses Moody and Kristaps Porzingis missed the opener, narrowing options for scoring, perimeter defense and rim protection. The Warriors' recent history against Memphis is positive: they won all three meetings last season. However, those results came against a different Grizzlies roster. Golden State must contain Jerome at the point of attack, rebound more effectively and improve outside shooting after going 8-for-36 from three in Los Angeles. Rotation announcements may materially change the side and total outlook.
