As the Philadelphia 76ers prepare to host the Memphis Grizzlies without star Joel Embiid on Monday night, Joe Dellera of the Action Network provides his two best bets in the above video.
Despite the late line move that saw a flip of favorites, Dellera is still confident enough to lay the points with visiting Memphis against an Embiid-less 76ers.
“The Grizzlies have exceeded all of their expectations this season,” Dellera said. “They’re sixth in adjusted net rating, sixth in offensive net rating and ninth in defensive net rating.”
In addition to laying the points with the Grizzlies, who were catching money even before the Embiid news, Dellera is targeting one additional player prop: Desmond Bane over 17.5 points.
“Bane is shooting 42 percent from three-point range,” explains Dellera.
Additionally, Dellera adds that upon close examination, Bane’s home and road splits are worth taking note of prior to this matchup. In games played on the road this season, Bane is averaging 21.2 points per game and 3.8 made threes per game.
Lastly, Dellera cites that Bane is trending upward in regards to his point total. In his last 10 games, the TCU product has produced at least 18 points in six.
Monday’s meeting will be the final regular season contest between the 76ers and Grizzlies, who produced a 126-91 victory on December 18th. That game also saw Joel Embiid fail to feature due to sore ribs.
