Golden State Warriors vs Memphis Grizzlies 08.05.2022
Golden State Warriors head back to the Chase Centre having stolen one game and they will be looking to input their imprint on this series in this critical game 3. They had a chance to take a commanding 2-0 lead but they simply had no answers for Ja Morant’s heroics as he put Memphis on his back with easily the most impressive individual performance of this year’s playoffs thus far.
Ja Morant scored 47 points in that game 2 to keep the series alive heading to the Bay Area. He has literally been a one-man army with his lieutenants struggling to find any rhythm in those two home games. Desmond Bane is apparently nursing a back issue but is still expected to play
The Warriors were uncharacteristically terrible from the 3pt line in game 2, shooting a woeful 7/37. That sticks out as one of the areas they will certainly clean up. Klay Thompson in particular shot 2/12, largely because of poor shot selection. We expect a much better output from him this time and we are backing him to hit at least 4 3-point field goals
Tip: Klay Over 3.5 3pt Field Goals
