Los Angeles Clippers vs. Memphis Grizzlies Prediction

1u - Tyus Jones 12+ PTS / Russell Westbrook 10+ PTS (-125) (Bet $125 to Collect $225)Click Here for the Best Odds Available at DraftKings

Betting on both teams' starting point guards here. Ja Morant thinks he’s in GTA 5, so he won’t be playing this game, but Tyus Jones is a solid guard. In Morant’s absence, Jones scored 12+ in 8/9 games. In that span, he is averaging 18.8 points per game.

Our juice reducer here is Russ, to score 10. He has hit this in 4/5 games as a Clipper and has taken double-digit field goal attempts in every game for them. The volume should be there, undoubtedly. Although it was as a member of the Lakers, we have seen Russ score 29 against Memphis this year in his lone matchup against them.

We don’t need either player to go out there and reinvent the wheel. Go out there and make a shot or two a quarter each, and we should end in the green. If I didn’t have a book where I could SGP these, I would play Tyus Jones's points line for half a unit, but I much prefer this bet, especially with the risk of a blowout. This is a late game, so let's hope it's worth staying up for. Let's roll!
