This is a 10* TOTAL OF THE MONTH on the OVER Wizards/Grizzlies.

Both teams have played to several "unders" of late, but we're expecting a wide-open affair here in the first game back from the break, one which will fly well OVER once it's all said and done.

The Wizards average a decent 114.8 PPG, but they're allowing 119.1. The combination of Bradley Beal and Russell Westbrook is finally starting to click and clearly the Wiz won't simply be rolling over here.

The Grizzlies average 111.6 PPG, and they allow 110.8.

Memphis has seen the total go UNDER in six straight, while Washington has seen it go UNDER in two of its last three. When these teams played on March 2nd, the total also stayed UNDER the total.

But now the situation points to a much higher-scoring contest. Finally note that the Grizzlies have seen the total go OVER in ten of their last 14 after playing to five or more consecutive UNDERS in a row.

This number is low, expect a shootout until the end!

Good luck, NP
