The Grizzlies failed to cover as 6.5-point road underdogs in Wednesday's 138-131 overtime loss to the New Orleans Pelicans. A Memphis win, or Sacramento Kings loss, will lock the Grizzlies into the 2nd seed in the Western Conference.

The Bucks defeated the Chicago Bulls 105-92 Wednesday as 5-point home favorites. Milwaukee is locked into the No. 1 seed in the Eastern Conference, so starters will likely sit for the final 2 games of the season.

This will be the second meeting between the Grizzlies and the Bucks this season. Memphis won 142-101 as a 3-point favorite and the Over (226.5) connected in the first meeting on Dec. 15.
