The Memphis Grizzlies are looking to do some home cooking on Wednesday night against the Portland Trail Blazers and Damian Lillard.
Memphis got back on track with a win at home in its last game, but if you’re not sold on betting on a side in this matchup, there are plenty of props to choose from as well.
Here are two of my favorites on Wednesday:
Blazers vs. Grizzlies best NBA prop bets
- Josh Hart UNDER 9.5 Points
- Ja Morant UNDER 9.5 Assists
Josh Hart UNDER 9.5 Points
Josh Hart is listed as questionable for this game, but he looks like he’s going to be able to go after playing in Portland’s last game.
Hart has failed to clear this line in eight of his last 10 games, and he’s averaging just 9.3 points per game on the season.
The issue with Hart is that he doesn’t get a ton of usage shooting the ball, averaging just six shots per game over his last 10 matchups.
I’ll fade him against the Grizzlies’ No. 2 defense tonight.
Ja Morant UNDER 9.5 Assists
Ja Morant has put up back-to-back triple doubles, but I think his assist prop is a little high for my liking.
Prior to picking up double-digit dimes in three straight games, Morant had cleared this line in just one of his previous 10 games.
It’s hard to be an UNDER on a player of Morant’s caliber, but sometimes we have to bet the number and not the player. That’s the case here.
