The Toronto Raptors look to close out their current four-game home stand on a winning note when they host the Memphis Grizzlies in Wednesday NBA betting action.

The Raptors have sputtered since returning home riding a season-high five-game win streak, losing two of three, capped by Tuesday’s 121-115 defeat at the hands of the New York Knicks. The Grizzlies travel north of the border on a high after rolling to a decisive 128-109 victory over San Antonio that lifts them to 9-1 in their past 10 contests but sport a middling 5-5 record over their past 10 road games.

The Grizzlies get set to hit the hardwood at Scotiabank Arena perched as 9.5-point favourites on the Wednesday NBA odds. The Raptors lag as distant +333 underdogs on the NBA moneyline and the total sits at 238.5.

Tuesday night’s tilt marks the second and final regular season meeting between these clubs. The Grizzlies rolled to a dominating 155-126 win when the Raptors visited Memphis on Boxing Day and have now claimed victory in five of eight head-to-head clashes including each of their past four visits to Toronto. Memphis has claimed victory by an average margin of 9.5 points during their 4-0 run at Scotiabank Arena. However, low scoring remains commonplace when these teams meet, with the UNDER going 6-2 over their past eight meetings. That is largely due to a sputtering Raptors offence that has averaged just 99 points per game in their past four home dates with the Grizzlies. While the Raptors have taken a bit of a step back during their current home stand, they have largely played steady defence during their current 8-3 run, limiting opponents to 108 or fewer points on seven occasions. Conversely, the Grizzlies have regularly run up the score during their current 9-1 run, averaging 125.9 points per game and claiming victory by double digits on seven occasions. Not surprisingly, the OVER has paid out in nine of the team’s past 12.

The Grizzlies offence has caught fire while averaging 130 points over the past two games, with contributions coming from up and down the lineup. Jaren Jackson Jr. has led the attack. The big man followed up on a 37-point performance in Sunday’s 132-119 win in Milwaukee with 31 points on Monday night versus the Spurs and has now tallied an average of 37.8 points over the past six games. Ja Morant looked to be getting past a shoulder injury that sidelined him for two games with 25 points and 11assists in his most productive outing so far in 2025. GG Jackson came off the bench to drop a season-high 27 points on Monday, following in the steps of Santi Aldama, who stepped in to contribute 23 points on Sunday in his third 20+ point performance in eight games. Injuries remain a concern, with Desmond Bane now sidelined by an ankle sprain. Marcus Smart has missed 21 games with a finger injury but is listed as questionable for Wednesday’s game.

Toronto Raptors

With both RJ Barrett and Jakob Poeltl sidelined by injury, the Raptors had their hands full against the Knicks on Tuesday. After seizing an early lead, the club quickly fell behind while scoring just 17 points in the second quarter and never rebounded despite shooting 52.4% from the field and 37.9% from the arc. Scottie Barnes remains the key to the Toronto attack. Barnes led the way with 23 points on Tuesday and has averaged 21.7 points over the past seven games. However, with the status of both Barrett and Poeltl in question, the Raptors face a huge challenge to overcome their struggles when playing in the second half of games on back-to-back night after losing 15 of their past 18.
