The Houston Rockets are 2-0 against the Memphis Grizzlies this season. They will play the Grizzlies for the second time in five days tonight. The contest will tip off at 8:00 p.m. ET.
Still, at only 22 years old, Alperen Sengun continues to improve his scoring ability. Here is my favorite prop bet for him against the Grizzlies. Sengun scored 32 points on Thursday against the Grizzlies and has had a double-double in his last two games.
Alperen Sengun over 21.5 points (-120)
Although Sengun averaged nearly two more points per contest a season ago, recently, he has taken scoring up a notch. He has scored 32 and 26 points in his last two games and has hit this scoring mark four times in the previous seven games. On DraftKings Sportsbook, you can get his over in points at -120.
The Grizzlies allow 115.1 points per game, the 10th most in the NBA. In the five games this month, Sengun is averaging 17.6 field goals per game, 1.3 more than in December. Sengun is second on the Rockets in scoring behind Jalen Green, scoring 20.4 points a game.
In the last five games, Sengun has attempted 20-plus field goals and has hit this scoring total. Although he has been inconsistent on offense this season, he has still shown he has the potential to score at a high level. After dominating against the Grizzlies last week, this is a great position to back him against a familiar opponent.
