On the moneyline, the Grizzlies are priced as long as +260 at Caesars and +255 at bet365 in Tuesday’s NBA odds. All other sites have Memphis as +250 or shorter. The best moneyline price on the Warriors currently is -303 (1.33 decimal) at BetMGM. The Dubs are as short as -335 at Caesars.

There is only a half-point range in the game total: the vast majority of sportsbooks have it at 229.5 but FanDuel has it a little lower at 229 flat with -112 odds on the over.

The NBA public betting splits for Tuesday show the Warriors getting the majority of moneyline handle (63%) and even more of the ML tickets (85%). But the public is more conflicted when it comes to the spread, putting exactly 50% of ATS handle on each side and 51% of ATS wagers on Memphis. With respect to the total, the public is hammering the under: 88% of O/U handle and 87% of O/U bets.

The discrepancy between Golden State’s price in the 2025 NBA Championship odds (as short as +1400 at BetMGM) and Memphis’ price (as long as +30000 at bet365) is stunning. The Dubs have a 6.67% implied win probability while the Grizzlies are well half a percent (0.33%).

Grizzlies vs Warriors Picks & Prediction

The Warriors did take three of four from Memphis during the regular season but all three wins were competitive, unlike the Grizzlies’ lone victory, which was a 144-93 laugher in Memphis.

Back on Nov. 15, the Dubs won 123-118 at home. On Jan. 4, Golden State took a 121-113 home victory. And, most recently, on April 1, Golden State earned a 134-125 road win in a game that was tied after three quarters. Both teams were 2-2 ATS in those four regular-season meetings.

The Warriors also finished the regular season with a higher Net Rating than Golden State: +4.7 (sixth-best in the NBA) vs +3.2 (tenth).

MEM vs GSW Advanced Stats

Of course, Golden State has only had Jimmy Butler on the roster since early February. The main reason the Warriors are such heavy favorites on Tuesday – and have such short NBA title odds – is how they played with the former Heat star on the floor. In 30 games with Butler, Golden State went a sublime 23-7 straight-up, and two of those setbacks came when Steph Curry was injured.

Butler has been a consummate playoff performer his entire career. He’s averaged 18.3 PPG, 5.3 RPG, and 4.3 APG in the regular season over his 16-year-career. In the postseason, those numbers jump to 21.3 PPG, 6.2 RPG, and 4.6 APG. And though Golden State fell on the final day of the regular season to the Clippers (124-119 OT) in a game that would have kept them out of the Play-In Tournament, Butler dropped 30 points with nine dimes and just one turnover in 48 minutes of action, shooting 12-of-20 from the field.

While their were some stumbles down the stretch (losing three of five to close out the season), the Warriors showed a new level when Butler was paired with Steph Curry and Draymond Green. Ja Morant and the Grizzlies are also riding a six-game road losing streak in the playoffs dating back to the 2022 postseason, so I’m not prepared to bet Memphis to win straight-up.

That said, the Warriors have long had their struggles in the Play-In Tournament – going 0-3 all-time in the newest edition to the NBA playoffs – and this is a sizable spread they’re being asked to cover. I like the value on Memphis +7 (-105) at bet365.
