Grizzlies vs Nuggets prediction

Grizzlies vs Nuggets best bet: Ty Jerome Over 16.5 points (-112)

Ty Jerome has a massive role in the Memphis Grizzlies depleted rotation, and I expect him to show out tonight. 

Since returning from injury, he's averaged nearly 20 ppg in just 20 minutes of action. With Ja Morant and other starters sidelined, Jerome’s usage rate has surged to 32.4%, allowing him to clear 17 points in four of his last five games

The Denver Nuggets perimeter defense is shaky in Peyton Watson and Aaron Gordon’s absence, giving the sharpshooting Jerome more space to exploit, and a strong chance to clear his scoring prop.

Grizzlies vs Nuggets same-game parlay

Watson’s absence should allow Kentavious Caldwell-Pope to score at least 10 points, as he’s cleared this number in five of his previous six games.

Memphis has covered the spread in four of its last five games and meets a Denver group that’s 2-3 ATS in its previous five contests at Ball Arena.

Our "from downtown" SGP: Points all Over

Nikola Jokic scores in the post, in the short roll, and on second chances. The Grizzlies cannot protect the paint, which sets up as a strong scoring matchup for him.

Kyle Anderson should see around 25 minutes. He scored eight points in his Grizzlies debut and should get clean looks with Watson sidelined.
