NBA predictions, picks, and odds for the Philadelphia 76ers at Memphis Grizzlies on 4-6. NBA best bets and same-game parlay analysis.

Joel Embiid's become much more comfortable as a playmaker this season, and putting himself in the spots to succeed, our NBA picks don't think the Grizzlies will pester the 76ers would-be MVP much.

Assuming they can avoid falling prey to the Memphis Grizzlies on Saturday, April 6 that is. The Grizzlies have had mostly G-League level roster for much of this season, but they have somehow managed to win three in a row.will go as far as Joel Embiid takes them. Those chances took a serious blow when he suffered his meniscus injury, but Embiid has looked surprisingly spry in his first two games back in action.

But a big part of his improvement is where he occupies on the court has shifted over the past two seasons. He’s no longer as often on the low block and boxed in by the baseline, instead, he’s surveying closer to the elbows where it is much harder to double team from effectively. Embiid looked like a player who needed to get his timing back after a long layoff, but that trial by fire will ultimately be good for him and is a big part of why I think he’ll continue to clean up those mistakes on Saturday.

The discipline it takes to double Embiid without conceding an easy pass and layup in return is going to be hard to conjure for a team with so many inexperienced players as this. I expect Embiid is going to manage the game on Saturday and keep his turnovers to a minimum.For all the attention he gets as perhaps the league’s best outright scorer, Embiid also has a transformative effect on Philadelphia’s defense.

The Grizzlies have managed to remain a strong defensive team as well, despite the injuries. That’s contributed to the Under going 24-12-1 in Grizzlies home games, the highest such rate in the NBA.
