Raum has been heavily involved in attacking phases of play, registering at least one shot in 15 of his last 20 starts. He also scored in his most recent appearance and has produced two shots in three of his last five matches.

Baumgartner’s recent form is exceptional, with shot totals of 2,3,2,4 in his last four games and three goals across his last two outings. He has hit 2+ shots in 12 of his last 15 starts.

Brooks has shown clear shooting intent, recording five shots in his most recent start against Stoke and hitting 2+ shots in three of his last four appearances.

Jazz vs Grizzlies

Tip 4: Jaylen Wells – Over 12.5 Points vs Jazz – 1.5pts

The 12.5 line looks too low based on Wells’ current role and production. He is averaging 15.9 points over his last ten games and a massive 19.0 across his last five. He has cleared 13+ points in seven of those ten games.

With injuries to Zach Edey and John Konchar, Wells is locked into 30+ minutes and a major usage role. His efficiency has been elite, shooting 64.4% during his hot streak. Regardless of Ja Morant’s status, Wells profiles as a primary scoring option.

The AI probability sits at 53% with a 50% implied probability, generating a 6% Positive EV at evens (1/1) with SpreadEX.
