NBA Best Bets: Top Ja Morant player props for Grizzlies vs. Warriors on 4/1/25

The Memphis Grizzlies are in disarray after abruptly firing head coach Taylor Jenkins last week with fewer than 10 games remaining in the regular season. Since then, the team has dropped both of their matchups and is in danger of dropping from their fifth-place spot in the Western Conference with a loss to the Golden State Warriors tonight.

Despite the uncertainly brought about by the recent coaching shakeup, Ja Morant and his teammates look to stay ahead of Steph Curry in the playoff race in this matchup. Here’s the top Morant prop bets on DraftKings Sportsbook.

Best Ja Morant prop bets on DraftKings Sportsbook

Morant’s prop betting lines for tonight are listed at 23.5 points, 4.5 rebounds, 7.5 assists, and 1.5 three-pointers made. His PTS + REB + AST O/U is currently listed at 37.5.

The Grizzlies are four-point underdogs in this contest, while the game total sits at a high 238 points on DKSB. The Warriors aren’t an easy matchup as they rank seventh in defensive rating and eighth in opponent points per game. Curry and his co-star Jimmy Butler are still developing chemistry and the team enters this game with a 7-3 record across their last 10 games.

While Morant’s production has largely been inconsistent this season, I actually do like him to go over his points line of 23.5 He’s exceeded that mark in nine of his last 10 contests, as well as four of his last five appearances. Over this 10-game span, he’s averaging an impressive 29.0 points per contest. While his shooting splits haven’t been great, Morant is pressuring the rum and taking plenty of attempts. With this recent hot streak, I’m taking over 23.5 points at -125 odds.

However, there’s another prop where the under could be prudent. Morant’s three-pointers made line sits at 1.5 tonight with +114 odds on the under. He’s been taking plenty of three-pointers lately, averaging 6.9 per contest over his last 10 appearances. Despite the volume, he’s shooting just 23.2% from beyond the arc and has gone under 1.5 made threes in six of those games. With the plus-odds and his poor efficiency from deep, I’m taking Morant to stay under 1.5 made threes tonight.
