Memphis Grizzlies vs Utah Jazz Prediction & Picks, October 21, 2026

For Ty Jerome to go under 6.5 assists tonight, he needs to have a quieter game in a tough matchup against the Memphis Grizzlies. The Grizzlies are known for their strong defense, making it harder for any player to rack up assists. Plus, Jerome might not play as many minutes, which can limit his chances to set up teammates. Our numbers give this bet a good chance because of how the Grizzlies play and Jerome's recent form. The biggest risk is that if Jerome gets more playing time than expected, his assist numbers could rise. Still, with Memphis's tough defense at home, it feels likely he stays under that mark.

Memphis Grizzlies vs Utah Jazz: Jaxson Hayes Under 12.5 Pts + Rebs (+145)

For Jaxson Hayes to go under 12.5 points and rebounds tonight, he needs to have a quieter game against the Memphis Grizzlies. The Grizzlies are known for their tough defense, which can make scoring and grabbing boards harder for Hayes. Plus, he might not get as many opportunities if the game pace slows down. Our numbers suggest there's a good chance of Hayes staying under that total, especially with how the Grizzlies play at home. However, the risk here is that both teams are close in talent, so it's possible Hayes could have a breakout moment. Still, with the Grizzlies' defense in mind, this pick seems solid.

Memphis Grizzlies vs Utah Jazz: Ty Jerome Under 28.5 Pts + Rebs + Asts (+145)

Ty Jerome needs to score, grab rebounds, and dish out assists, but we're betting he stays under 28.5 tonight against the Utah Jazz. The Grizzlies have been playing great defense lately, and Jerome's opportunities might be limited because he doesn't play huge minutes. The Jazz can be tough, too, and both teams are looking to control the pace. With a good chance for Jerome to come in under that number based on how the game is shaping up, this bet feels solid. Just remember, he might surprise us, especially if he gets hot, but overall, it looks like he'll fall short tonight.
