Marcus Smart Assists
Player Prop - 1/5/2024

Los Angeles Lakers vs Memphis Grizzlies

Marcus Smart Assists Prop is currently Over/Under 3.5 (-125/-105).

The money has been on the Over as it opened 3.5 @ -115 before it was bet up to 3.5 @ -125.

FACTORS THAT FAVOR THE OVER:

The Grizzlies have played at the 8th-quickest pace in the NBA on the road this year.

The Lakers have played at the 3rd-fastest pace in the league over the last 5 games in their home stadium, which should lead to increased opportunities for the Grizzlies.

The Lakers have allowed the 2nd-least offensive boards per game (9.7) in the NBA to opposing clubs over the last 20 games (offensive rebounds maintain possession, and a lack of them may therefore eliminate further opportunities for scoring and assists).

FACTORS THAT FAVOR THE UNDER:

Marcus Smart has compiled a lowly 4.2 assists per game this season, significantly less than his 6.0 assists per game last season.

In contrast to last year's 0.1 clip, Marcus Smart's technical fouls have surged this year to 0.3 per game.

Offensive rebounds retain possession and lead to added opportunities for scoring and assists, but the Grizzlies grade out 1stworst in in the league with a mere 6.4 offensive boards per game over the last 5 games.

Marcus Smart stands to suffer a drop-off in performance across the board on account of playing on the visting team in this contest.
