The Grizzlies are 6-13 ATS in their last 19 road games and 2-5 ATS in their last 7 games overall. The Thunder are 33-10 ATS in their last 43 Sunday games and 1-8 ATS in their last 9 games overall. The over is 5-1 in Grizzlies last 6 road games. The over is 37-17-1 in Thunder last 55 home games. The Grizzlies are 5-11 ATS in the last 16 meetings in Oklahoma City and 10-4 ATS in the last 14 meetings.

Both teams are locked into where they're going to be for the postseason, so we're going to see endless backups. I like to take my chances with free points in spots like this, and it doesn't hurt that OKC is at home. The Oklahoma City Thunder are at their best at home, and they lose as underdogs by an average of just 2 points. Give me the home team and the free bucket.
