Why Bet on the Memphis Grizzlies?
The Grizzlies have listed Morant as doubtful for Monday night’s game, but that doesn’t mean Memphis has no hope. Dillon Brooks is eligible to put on the sneakers. Brooks will give the Grizzlies a huge boost. He averages over 18 points, close to 3 assists and over 3 boards per game. Brooks has played point guard in the past so if Morant can’t go, he will fill the gap.
Not only that, but Desmond Bane will also answer the call. Bane shoots over 43% from three. Expect plenty of plays that involve Bane running off screens and throwing up treys. If the strategy works, the Grizzlies can keep this closer than the number.
Why Bet on the Golden State Warriors?
The Warriors played about as well as any basketball team can play. But for Golden State, the stats imply another day at the office. Golden State is good enough to post 142 each game. But if Memphis want’s to play a defensive style game, then Golden State can slow it down and still beat you. The Warriors allow 43.8% from the field and 105.5 per game on average. The averages rank third or better in points per and field goal percentage allowed.
Memphis doesn’t have much choice in this game. If they decide not run and gun, the Warriors’ half-court defense will shut down the Grizzlies’ offense.

Grizzlies vs. Warriors Expert Betting Prediction
Some teams can’t win without their star player. It’s not that Memphis doesn’t have other good players in addition to Morant. But the Grizzlies’ run everything through Ja. If he doesn’t step onto the court, Memphis will be in trouble from the outset. The rest of the team can’t perfect a strategy to beat a basketball squad like the Golden State Warriors in the span of 48 hours.
It’s not enough time to come up with a game plan on offense that prevents the Warriors from capitalizing on missed shots. Clearing the lane and letting Morant create and then pass the ball to three-point shooters is Memphis’ game. With Morant, even a one-hundred percent healthy Ja, Golden State would have a big chance to win and cover. Without Morant, Memphis has no shot of keeping this close.
