Fact checked at 9:16 AM ET, Nov 14, 2026Odds as of 7:27 AM ET, Nov 14, 2026
The Nets (3-8) visit the Grizzlies (8-4) for an 8:00 PM ET tip at FedExForum. Memphis is favored, though it has been an odd home team: 6-0 on the road, 2-4 at home. It is also on the second night of a back-to-back after a 142-111 win in New Orleans last night, a game Zach Edey and Quinten Post both sat while Isaiah Stewart started at center. Memphis hasn't filed its injury report for tonight. Brooklyn has been off since its own 145-111 win in New Orleans three nights ago. Nolan Traore is probable with right calf tightness, and rookie Mikel Brown Jr. is questionable with an illness.
We're looking at Brooklyn's frontcourt. Michael Porter Jr. is the first option now, Egor Demin is back, Traore should return, and Danny Wolf has started beside Day'Ron Sharpe for three straight games. There's less left over for Julius Randle and Sharpe than their lines assume.
Nets vs. Grizzlies Predictions
Pick #1Julius Randle Under 21.5 Points−117
Porter has outscored Randle in each of Brooklyn's last four games: 26 to 22, 25 to 19, 19 to 13 and 22 to 17. Randle's minutes have slid along with it, 36, 31, 34, 30 and 29 over the last five, and he didn't make a three in three of those games (0-for-4, 0-for-1, 0-for-5).
His season backs it up. Randle averages 19.7 points and has stayed under 21.5 in 7 of 11 games, 4 of the last 5 among them, and one public projection has him at 18.2 tonight. The -117 price implies 53.9%, and his share keeps getting cut: Demin scored 22 in his return, and Traore scored between 14 and 19 in each of his four starts in this stretch.
A close game is what beats this. Randle scored 21 and 22 in two of the last five, so one more bucket flips it, and a tight fourth quarter would keep him out there longer than the 29 and 30 minutes he played in two lopsided games. Tired Memphis legs on a back-to-back could also open up easier looks. He isn't on the injury report.
Pick #2Day'Ron Sharpe Under 7.5 Rebounds−125
Sharpe has started at center in all of Brooklyn's last five games and finished with 6, 5, 10, 4 and 4 rebounds. It comes down to minutes: 22, 27, 32, 20 and 19. His one trip over this number, 10 boards in Atlanta, came on the only night he played more than 27.
He's also splitting the glass. Wolf has started next to him for three straight games and pulled down 10, 3 and 11 rebounds in them. For the season Sharpe averages 6.8 rebounds and has stayed under 7.5 in 7 of 11 games. At -125 the implied chance is 55.6%, and a center logging about 24 minutes beside another rebounder should come in under that more often than not.
Edey is the unknown here. He sat last night, and if he sits again Memphis is smaller inside, which could free up rebounds for Sharpe. A close game that keeps him on the floor past 30 minutes would hurt as well. Sharpe isn't on Brooklyn's injury report.
