We have officially made it to the weekend! It’s Friday, and we have a lot to be thankful for heading into the next few days. For starters, the Masters is in full swing, with Day two happening as you’re reading this.
There is also a massive NBA slate going down tonight, and with limited time until the playoffs begin, teams are running out of time to solidify their standing and overall seed.
With that in mind, we’ve looked at every game on the slate, and after spending a lot of time on Underdog, we decided to put all of our eggs into the basket of the matchup between the Memphis Grizzlies and Denver Nuggets. Let’s get into our favorite props from this game!
Player | Prop | Price |
---|---|---|
Nikola Jokic | Over 27.5 Points | |
Nikola Jokic | Under 27.5 Points |
This line is way too high for our liking. It’s tough to bet against Nikola Jokic, especially for a game that means so much for the Western Conference standings, but considering his lifetime struggles against the Grizzlies, we’re fading his point total in this one.
Jokic has only had 30+ points in one of his past 10 games against the Grizzlies, averaging 23.3 PPG during this 10-game span.
He might be the MVP again this year, but we can’t trust him against the Grizzlies until we see more consistency, which is why we’re taking the under in this spot.
Player | Prop | Price |
---|---|---|
Ja Morant | Over 22.5 Points | |
Ja Morant | Under 23.5 Points |
Jokic might not have the best track record against the Grizzlies, but Ja Morant has been nothing short of unstoppable against them lately. He’s had 27 points in three of his past four outings vs. this Western Conference juggernaut, including two games with 30+.
Morant needs to do everything he can tonight to not only help the Grizzlies win this game, but also to maintain their stop in the standings.
Look for him to have at least 30 points this evening, easily eclipsing this line.
Player | Prop | Price |
---|---|---|
Christian Braun | Over 7.5 Rebounds/Assists | |
Christian Braun | Under 7.5 Rebounds/Assists |
Christian Braun might be the most unsung hero of the Denver Nuggets. He continues to impress in all areas of his game, especially in the area of rebounds and assists.
The Nuggets have a lot of scoring threats, certainly, which is why Braun gets more assist opportunities than some of his counterparts around the league.
Look for this high-energy, high-effort athlete to be especially impactful in tonight’s game, easily hitting the over on his combined assists and rebounds.
