Indiana Pacers vs Memphis Grizzlies Betting Tips

Tyrese Haliburton has been very inconsistent this season, but is still averaging 17.5 points per game. Haliburton has an over/under of 18.5 points and is favored to score 18 points or less. He has gone over 18.5 in his last four games, so take the risk and bet on him to get at least 19 points on Sunday.

Pascal Siakam is averaging 21.0 PPG this season and has an over/under of 21.5 points. Siakam has scored at least 22 points three times in his last five games. He's favored to go under, which is not a bad bet to make given that he'll be matched up against Jaren Jackson Jr.

Ja Morant returned from a one-game absence and scored 27 points in a win over the New Orleans Pelicans. Morant is favored to go under 20.5 points despite scoring at least 21 points six times in his 10 games played this season. Take the risk and place your money on Morant to go over 20.5 points.

Jaren Jackson Jr. is favored to go under 19.5 points even though he's averaging 22.2 PPG this season. JJJ has scored at least 20 points in four of his last five games, so go against the odds and bet on him to do it again against the Indiana Pacers.
