Earlier today, I shared successful SI Betting’s champion NBA props column why Durant whitethorn beryllium a slice campaigner successful this marketplace connected Wednesday: 

Kevin Durant is 1 of nan top scorers and shooters successful NBA history, but he has not taken a ton of 3-point shots successful nan 2025-26 season.

Durant is averaging conscionable 5 3-point attempts per crippled this play while shooting 36.7 percent from beyond nan arc. He’s cleared 2.5 made 3-pointers successful 2 of his games, but he besides only has 2 games wherever he’s attempted much than 4 shots from deep.

That constricted measurement makes him difficult to spot astatine this line, moreover against a Memphis squad that is 25th successful nan convention successful force 3-point percentage.

If Durant isn’t going to return astir 5 to 8 3-pointers, it makes it a batch tougher for him to decorativeness pinch three-plus, particularly since he hasn’t changeable nan lights retired from heavy early successful this season. 

Houston has rebounded from a slow commencement to nan season, and it’s now 2nd successful nan NBA successful nett standing (+12.0) and first successful nan convention successful violative rating.

The Rockets person an mean scoring separator of +12.7 this season, and they’re now 4-2 against nan dispersed heading into this matchup pinch a struggling Memphis team.

The Grizzlies don’t lucifer up good pinch nan Rockets, arsenic they’re down 2 cardinal frontcourt pieces successful Edey and Clarke and 2 cardinal backcourt pieces successful Jerome and Pippen. So, Memphis can’t return advantage of nan deficiency of guards connected this Houston team, and it whitethorn get crushed connected nan boards against nan No. 1 rebounding squad successful nan NBA.

Oh, and nan Grizzlies are conscionable 25th successful nan convention successful nett standing and person mislaid 3 successful a row.

I emotion Houston to triumph this crippled by a wide separator connected Wednesday night. 

Pick: Rockets -7.5 (-110 astatine DraftKings)
