Randy’s Pick
The Memphis Grizzlies are usually a tough out at home, and you’re not going to get them as home dogs often. However, the Grizzlies offense has been on the struggle bus through 3 games, and they’re seriously missing Ja Morant. The Dallas Mavericks still have defensive issues they need to work out, but the offense is firing on all cylinders and Luka has been the best player in the league through the first week. Grizzlies have to show me something until I can get behind them. I’ll lay the bucket with the Mavs.
