Earl's NBA power ranking ยท Week 4, 2026
#18
rank
-2.6
rating (points, neutral field)
25-57
record (2025)
-1.7
vs market (Earl \u2212 line)
Memphis sits at 18th with a -2.587 neutral-field rating, but the 1.9-point jump versus last week is the real signal here โ this team is trending up fast. The catch is that 3-0 record came against a schedule rated -9.463, so the wins are softer than they look, and the market's -1.67 vs. their rating suggests the number is already shaded toward the hype. With no key absences docked, I'm a cautious buy on the rating climb but a sell on laying points until they prove it against real competition.
