Morant has been the talk of the league after his career-high 52-point outing against the Spurs on Monday. In fact, in his last four games Morant is averaging 40.5 PPG while shooting at a 53.4% clip including 44.4% from three-point land.
While Morant has been a man on fire as of late, his efficiency from the three-point line is down in road games on the season. When playing away from FedExForum, Morant is connecting on just 30% of his shots from beyond the arc compared to 39% at home.
Morant’s points total is set at 29.5 (-130) on Draftkings Sportsbook for tonight’s matchup against the stingiest defense in the NBA when it comes to two-point field goal percentage. Boston is holding opponents to 49.1% from inside the perimeter on the season which is where most of Morant’s offensive production comes from.
The Parlay: Jayson Tatum OVER 29.5 points & Memphis Grizzlies +2.5 (+285)
After squaring off against Morant in the All-Star Game, Boston’s Jayson Tatum has put together an impressive four-game stretch of his own. In the four games since the break, Tatum is averaging 28.2 PPG as the Celtics have won three of their last four.
Tonight, the Celtics will be without the Robin to Tatum’s Batman in Jaylen Brown. Brown, who is averaging 23.2 PPG on the season, will miss tonight’s contest with an ankle injury forcing Tatum to shoulder more of the offensive load. Like Morant, Tatum’s point total is set at 29.5 (-125), but without Brown in the lineup there is more value on Tatum hitting the 30-point mark.
As for the game itself, the Grizzlies are tops in the league with a 41-22-1 record against the spread this season including an impressive 16-9 mark as underdogs. The Grizzlies are the more well-rounded team in this matchup with a much deeper roster.
While Tatum will certainly score his fair share of points this evening, expect Memphis’ secondary scorers to be the difference in this one. Memphis catching two and the hook is just too hard to pass up with the way the team is gelling right now.
