Game Preview

A week after the Memphis Grizzlies’ dominant 131-114 win over the Los Angeles Lakers, the two teams meet again on Wednesday—this time in Los Angeles, adding a new layer to this anticipated rematch.

Memphis comes into the game on a roll, winning their last two matchups and averaging 131 points, even without star Ja Morant, who remains out with a hip injury. Their most recent win was an impressive 134-89 blowout over the Portland Trail Blazers, marking the fourth-largest margin of victory in franchise history. In that game, Jaren Jackson Jr. led the charge with 20 points, while Jay Huff contributed six blocks off the bench, tying a franchise record.

Despite missing key players like Morant, Desmond Bane (oblique), and Marcus Smart (ankle), the Grizzlies have shown resilience. "No matter our lineup, I want Jackson to stay aggressive as a primary scorer," noted coach Taylor Jenkins, suggesting that Jackson could be a key player for prop bets in this matchup.

The Lakers, coming off a tough 1-4 road trip, have been flawless at home with a 5-0 record to start the season. LeBron James has been in peak form, notching back-to-back triple-doubles, including 19 points, 16 assists, and 10 rebounds in their 123-103 win over the Toronto Raptors. Anthony Davis, who left Sunday’s game with an eye injury, is set to return, a boost for those considering bets on Los Angeles.

D’Angelo Russell missed practice on Tuesday due to illness, so bettors should check his status before game time. Los Angeles’ undefeated home streak and Memphis’ high-scoring recent performances make this an exciting game with multiple betting angles, from player props to spreads.

LeBron, who’s averaging 23.2 points, 7.7 rebounds, and 8.9 assists, continues to showcase his playmaking skills, expressing his satisfaction in setting up his teammates—a trait to consider in assists props.

With the Lakers’ home advantage and the Grizzlies’ recent strong form, this matchup presents rich betting opportunities across various markets.
