The highly anticipated matchup between the Utah Jazz and the Memphis Grizzlies is set to be a thrilling showdown.

The Jazz, led by All-Star Donovan Mitchell, have been on a hot streak and are currently one of the top teams in the Western Conference. With their strong defense and potent offense, they are a force to be reckoned with on the court. On the other hand, the Grizzlies, behind the leadership of Ja Morant, have been turning heads with their exciting style of play. They are a young and energetic team that has been exceeding expectations this season. With both teams playing at a high level, this game is sure to be a nail-biter from start to finish.

Brad Thomas (@MrBradThomas) is betting on Ja Morant Double Double +240…

Thomas: “Before you knock it, think about this for a second. We have a total of 242 points, and Morant is projected to score 26. He’s been scorching hot these past few games, and it’s expected for him to have another monster night. If we at home on our couches know that don’t you think the Jazz also know that? I imagine Will Hardy will send help and try to make anyone, but Morant beat them. Given his great matchup, I was torn between Bane 30+ points or Morant DD. However, Morant has had 17 potential assists per game in the last three games. I expect him to flirt with the DD, and the price is nice.”
