Two struggling squads look to pick up a win as the Indiana Pacers play host to the Memphis Grizzlies this evening.
These teams haven’t been playing much defense lately, and that has me backing the Over in my Grizzlies vs. Pacers predictions.
Read on for a full breakdown of tonight’s action in my free NBA picks for Sunday, March 1.

Grizzlies vs Pacers same-game parlay
While both teams are struggling mightily, I’ve seen a little more fight out of the Grizzlies, who should snag a road win against a Pacers team that has lost five straight. GG Jackson II will lead the charge, as he’s taken advantage of his increased playing time to score 17+ points and hit at least two shots from deep in four of his last six games.
