New York Knicks vs Memphis Grizzlies Prediction and Betting Tips | Feb. 28, 2025

The New York Knicks begin a two-game road trip on Friday night when they are welcomed by the Memphis Grizzlies at the FedEx Forum. The Knicks are coming off a win over the Philadelphia 76ers, while the Grizzlies outlasted the Phoenix Suns in their last game.

New York was able to put away the struggling Sixers despite Karl-Anthony Towns' absence due to a minor injury. Memphis, on the other hand, was quite happy to be back at home after a grueling five-game road trip, wherein they went just 2-3.

Tonight's contest is also the second and final matchup of the season between the Knicks and Grizzlies. The Knicks blew out the Grizzlies 143-106 on Jan. 27 at Madison Square Garden. The last time Memphis defeated the Knicks was on Nov. 27, 2022.
