Memphis regained the momentum in the series, winning 111-109 in Game 5 to take a 3-2 lead when Ja Morant scored on a layup with one second left to complete a comeback from 11 points down in the fourth quarter. Morant scored 30 points, Desmond Bane added 25 points, and Brandon Clarke had 21 coming off the bench for the Grizzlies. The game went UNDER by 11 points, and five of the last seven meetings have stayed UNDER. The Grizzlies held Minnesota to 44.5% shooting in Game 5, and they will come out strong in this one with the chance to put the series away. The Grizzlies were sixth in defensive efficiency in the regular season and led the NBA in steals and blocks. Memphis is 19-7 ATS after an ATS loss and 26-12 ATS in its last 38 games as a favorite. Take the Grizzlies ATS and the First-Half UNDER.
