Odds available at fanduel at time of publishing

As we set our sights on the upcoming showdown between the Spurs and Grizzlies, a keen look at Victor Wembanyama's recent performance suggests that taking the under on his combined points, rebounds, and assists at 43.5 is a smart play. In his last five contests, he's averaged 23.8 points, 11.2 rebounds, and 3.2 assists, totaling about 38.2. When on the road, those numbers dip slightly, with his points averaging around 20. Against the Grizzlies, his historical stats show he often falls short, averaging just 21.4 points and 9.2 rebounds. Moreover, Wembanyama has hit the under in 10 of his last 11 away games. With the Grizzlies' defense tightening up at home, it's hard to envision him breaking through the 43.5 mark. This matchup might just keep him in check, making the under a compelling option

Stephon Castle (San Antonio Spurs) Under 26.5 Points + Assists (-128)

As the Grizzlies gear up to face the Spurs, the spotlight shines on Stephon Castle, but I'm leaning towards the under on his combined points and assists at 26.5. While he's had some impressive outings, his recent stats tell a different story. Averaging just 18 points and 9.2 assists over the last five games, Castle has struggled a bit away from home, contributing only 14.6 points and 8 assists in those contests. Against the Spurs, he's managed 20 points per game on the road, but with a modest assist rate of 5.3, it's clear he's not consistently hitting that 26.5 mark. With a solid 14 out of 18 hit rate overall and a staggering 13 of the last 15 away, it seems likely that Castle will fall short. Expect him to play well, but not quite well enough to cross that threshold.

When it comes to Victor Wembanyama's performance against the Memphis Grizzlies, the numbers suggest we might want to lean towards the under on his combined points and rebounds. In his last five games, he's averaging 23.8 points and 11.2 rebounds, which totals just 35, comfortably below the 39.5 mark we're eyeing. Traveling to Memphis, Wembanyama's away averages dip slightly, with only 20 points and 11.4 rebounds per game. Historically, when facing off against the Grizzlies, his production has been even lower, with 21.4 points and 9.2 rebounds. The recent trend is telling; in his last 11 away games, he's hit this under 10 out of 11 times, showcasing a strong pattern. Given the Grizzlies' defensive prowess, it feels like a solid play to target Wembanyama for the under on Thursday night.
