Kate Constable: Suns +110 ML vs. Grizzlies

After winning seven consecutive games, the Grizz have dropped two in a row while the Suns have won three of their last four. Ja Morant (27.0 points, 6.4 rebounds, 7.8 assists) has been sensational all year, but this Grizzlies team is missing Desmond Bane (24.7 points, 4.9 rebounds, 4.8 assists), who has been out due to injury. Devin Booker (28.0 points, 4.8 rebounds, 5.8 assists) is questionable to play in this game, but luckily both Chris Paul (12.1 points, 4.8 rebounds, 9.1 assists) and Deandre Ayton (17.6 points, 9.7 rebounds, 2.0 assists) are back in Phoenix’s lineup. It’s very difficult for me to trust Memphis, so I’m going to roll with the home team to grab the victory.

Brad Pinkerton: BetMGM NBA OGP Insurance Play of the Day

If you're not playing BetMGM's NBA OGP Insurance promo yet, you're leaving money on the table. Opt in to the promo and place a four-leg (minimum) NBA one-game parlay; if your OGP loses by one leg, you'll get your stake back in a free bet up to $25 -- and you can take advantage of this promo once every day there's an NBA game!

Here is my play for today, using the strategy of "middling" the game total (can only lose a maximum of one leg there), and taking the most points on both teams (can only lose one leg here too); you can apply this strategy to any NBA game, any night:

CHI-NYK Over 215.5
CHI-NYK Under 235.5
Bulls +14.5
Knicks +5.5
OGP odds: +270

Join BetMGM to start taking advantage of their daily OGP insurance promos across NBA, NFL, NHL and college football, too! New BetMGM customers also get a risk-free first bet up to $1,000 using the offer below!
