No Mitchell, No Problem?
The Cavaliers have been solid so far in this fun-filled start to the NBA season.
They are currently 5th in the Eastern conference and are looking to continue their steady run through the regular season and make a deep playoff run.
A lot of the Cavaliers success to begin this season has been thanks to offseason acquisition Donovan Mitchell.
The Spida has been sensational in his first season in Cleveland, averaging 28 points per game.
It always helps when you have a guy who can drop 70 points in a night (yea he did that) so the Cavs are over the moon to have Mitchell producing on a night to night basis.
Well, we are finding out what life is like for the Cavs right now without their superstar.
If you were excited to tune in for Mitchell vs Morant tonight, sorry about it.
It doesn’t appear that Mitchell is going to miss an extended period of time but we are going to find out what the Cavaliers are made of without the scoring ability of Mitchell.
PG Darius Garland has taken a bit of a back seat this season due to Mitchell being the main baller but Garland now has a chance to take that lead role again.
More on that later so keep reading 😉
Speaking of a great scoring Point Guard…
Ja-Dropping Play from the Grizzlies
Before you keep reading, take a second and enjoy this gem.
You’re Welcome.
I just had to include that in here because it was one of the best dunks I have seen in years.
Ok, back to the anlaysis.
The Grizzlies are dunking on teams the way that Ja dunked in that video.
They are on a 10 game winning streak and sit 2nd in the West. They also love that home cooking, going a fantastic 19-3 at home so far this season.
Back to Ja.
Can’t talk too much about the Grizz without talking about the Superstar.
Morant has been dynamic, especially recently.
He is averaging 29 PPG over the past 5 games and he is set up for another wonderful night yet again in FedEx Forum Arena against the Cavaliers.
So tonight, will the Grizzlies win their 11th straight game at home or will the Cavaliers deliver a finishing blow to the riding-high Grizzlies?
Prediction
Well, to me, there is only one team to take tonight.
It is hard to not ride with the hottest team in the NBA playing at home against a cross- conference team without their most prolific scorer.
Give me the Grizzlies to get yet another big win and continue their streak at home.
Best Bet
Grizzlies -7.5 (-110)
Player Prop of the Game
Darius Garland 20+ Points/Ja Morant 25+ Points SGP (+100)
This Same Game Parlay of the 2 best offensive weapons on both teams for +100 just made way to much sense here.
I like both guys to hit their normal lines for their points as well, Ja especially, but the value on both of them at a little bit lower numbers for +100 is exactly what I want to see here.
Garland will have the ball in has hands all game long and with no Mitchell, will have to score.
He had 30 points last game without Mitchell but even in his last 6 games, he has eclipsed 20+ in 6 of 7.
Ja on the other side has 25+ points in 7 of his last 10 games and will no doubt come out tonight looking to score, early and often.
