Grizzlies at Suns picks and predictions
Prediction
Suns 115, Grizzlies 106
Moneyline
The Suns (-200) could have Booker back in the lineup — after missing the last 5 games — against a shorthanded Grizzlies squad that only scored 106 points Sunday.
With Allen likely returning and Booker potentially back, the Suns’ firepower should be too much for a Memphis squad missing several key pieces.
But -200 odds are not worth the action.
PASS.
Against the spread
The Suns have only scored 98.5 points per game over their last 4 outings, but the Grizzlies gave up 130 Sunday.
The Suns are only 11-20 ATS this season, and Memphis is 6-3 ATS as an underdog, but this matchup is too much for the Grizzlies without Morant.
BET SUNS -4.5 (-110).
Over/Under
The Under is 6-1 in the Suns’ last 7 games.
The last 4 meetings between these teams have not reached 237 points.
BET UNDER 236.5 (-110).
