I’m on the Nuggets +4 @ Grizzlies game for these reasons:

- Grizzlies are without Ja Morant still, and the grizzlies beat the nuggets on the 17th without Morant but the nuggets didn’t have Jokic. Jokic is day to day currently, and is questionable to play. The line is set at Nuggets +4 in the event that Jokic doesn’t play again. If Jokic does play, I see this number going to Nuggets being slight underdogs if not favored because of the playmaking ability and his ability to dominate the paint with Zach Edy also unavailable for the grizzlies tonight.

- The nuggets are on a two game losing streak. Jokic has missed 2 straight games, I don’t think he will miss a third straight. After this game, the nuggets get a 3 day break before hosting the Dallas mavericks.

- Mavs are 11th in 3pt defense, and that is what the grizzlies are going to rely on here being the undersized team. On the flip side the grizzlies are not good perimeter defenders, and The nuggets shooters should have the advantage against this Memphis defense that allows 14.4 3pts made on average and 41 attempts per game.

Official Play: Nuggets +4

Side Bet: Over 226

Hail Mary: Jamal Murray over 2.5 Three pointers made
