3 Best NBA Prop Bets Today for Warriors vs. Grizzlies Game 2 (Back Jordan Poole, Desmond Bane)
By Peter Dewey
The Golden State Warriors have a chance to take a 2-0 series lead against the Memphis Grizzlies on Tuesday night, and Golden State has fared well as road favorites in the playoffs under Steve Kerr.
WynnBET has Golden State favored by two points in this game, but are the Grizzlies due to bounce back with a win?
Here are three player props that I have my eye on for the Warriors-Grizzlies matchup tonight:
Best Prop Bets for Warriors vs. Grizzlies Game 2
- Jordan Poole to Hit 3+ 3-Pointers (-105)
- Desmond Bane OVER 17.5 Points (-120)
- Draymond Green OVER 7.5 Points (-130)
Jordan Poole to Hit 3+ 3-Pointers (-105)
Jordan Poole returned to his normal self in Game 1 against Memphis after struggling in the Warriors’ final two first-round games against the Denver Nuggets.
In six playoff games, Poole has cleared this total in four of them, making five 3-pointers three times. Poole is also taking nearly seven treys per game, and I think he can reach this number with that volume once again, especially since he shot 36.4 percent form 3 in the regular season.
Desmond Bane OVER 17.5 Points (-120)
While I don’t think Memphis wins this game, I’m all-in on a Desmond Bane bounce-back game, even though he is questionable with a back injury.
Bane has been on fire as of late, clearing this number in six of his last 10 games, and he’s averaging 21.4 points per game in the playoffs on 15.1 shots per game (8.6 3-point attempts per contest).
Bane took just 10 shots in Game 1, and he had his worst shooting performance of the playoffs, going 1-for-5 from beyond the arc.
The Warriors’ defense allowed too many easy baskets for Ja Morant inside, so I wouldn’t be surprised if they collapsed on him a bit more in Game 2, leaving Bane open for some catch-and-shoot opportunities.
Draymond Green OVER 7.5 Points (-130)
Draymond Green was well on his way to clear his points prop, but he was ejected in the first half with six points in Game 1.
Green had put up double-figures in each of his last two games before Game 1, and I think that scoring continues as the Grizzlies try to defend Steph Curry, Klay Thompson and Poole on the outside.
I’ll trust Draymond to keep himself on the floor in Game 2 tonight.
