Grizzlies vs. Rockets Odds & Betting Predictions - October 22, 2022

Green point overs are going to be a look for me this early season. Averaged 22.1 after the break last year and the books have been sharp to start with these high total but I still like the over tonight. I totally think he’ll be looking to go at Ja who he is gonna see as a target for his own rise. This game should play at a crazy pace and even though he only had 16 in season debut it was not for a lack of shots (shockingly). May even do a 30+ point bet at a long number cause he can be so hit or miss

DraftKings. Bane had 26 PRA in game 1 vs the Knicks despite shooting 3/10 on open threes (he shot 45% last season), and only 6 assists on 15 potential assists. 25.5% usage indicates he’s more involved in the offense - but this line is more indicative of the 22.6% he averaged last season. And they get the Rockets - pairing two of the fastest teams in the league. And for what it’s worth, Bane shot markedly better from 3P on the road last season (48% vs 39% at home) and averaged 27 PRA. Brooks is doubtful for this one as well.

On DK. He had 6 AST on 15 potential last game. 0 stats in OT. Bane was #2 on his team in touches and passes made. Brooks (inj.) + Melton (gone) equal extra playmaking. HOU bottom tier defense should lead to higher % baskets. #PlayerProps

4/4 against the rockets last season - and 64% of games overall last season. Great spot.

Curious to see if Memphis is as good in transition and Houston as bad in transition this year but if either is at all like last year this could get ugly even for Rockets home opener
