Another 12-game slate on Saturday as the NBA season starts to heat up – with plenty of upsets already, can the Miami Heat cause another on the road in Memphis?<\/span><\/p>\n

Miami Heat @ Memphis Grizzlies<\/h2>\n

Although the Grizzlies started the season with a win and it was an L for the Heat, I was more impressed with the performance Miami produced against the Orlando Magic.<\/span><\/p>\n

I think they have the defensive tools to limit Ja Morant\u2019s impact, which will go a long way to them causing an upset on the road in this.<\/span><\/p>\n

Leg 1: Heat +3.5<\/strong><\/h3>\n

Although they didn\u2019t get the win, I was really impressed with Miami\u2019s performance considering where they were projected to finish this season, leading the highly-touted Magic for the majority of the game.<\/span><\/p>\n

Understand this is in Memphis, but I wasn\u2019t all that convinced with their opening game effort defeating the Pelicans by six points at home in a shootout. No chance Spoelsta allows that to happen this time around, with Davion Mitchell likely to be unleashed on Ja Morant.<\/span><\/p>\n

Leg 2: Davion Mitchell 10+ Pts<\/strong><\/h3>\n

A Spoelstra favourite since the Heat acquired Davion Mitchell from the Raptors, and with Tyler Herro injured I think the Point Guard will play bulk minutes for Miami.<\/span>
\n<\/span>
\n<\/span>Davion Mitchell averages 12.7 points from his last 23 games with the Heat including the play-in and playoffs last season, hitting 10+ points in 19 of those games. Coming off 16 points from 15 attempts in the opener against the Magic, Mitchell hits 10+ here.<\/span><\/p>\n

Leg 3: Jaylen Wells 10+ Pts<\/strong><\/h3>\n

14 points from Jaylen Wells in the season opener against the Pelicans, and with Desmond Bane now at Orlando I expect Wells to fill that void.<\/span><\/p>\n

Although his shot volume was low with just eight attempts, Wells still knocked down four triples and should be playing around 30 minutes in an important role for Memphis.<\/span><\/p>\n

Same Game Multi<\/h3>\n

Heat +3.5 \/ Mitchell 10+ Points \/ Wells 10+ Points = $4.10<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n

\n

Value Leg: Bam Adebayo<\/strong><\/h3>\n

Averages 10.9 rebounds from his last ten games including last post-season, Bam started 2025-26 strong on the glass with 12 rebounds against the Magic.<\/span><\/p>\n

The lack of Zach Edey provides Adebayo a huge opportunity, with Jock Landale getting the start in Memphis\u2019 opener – the Australian only managing four rebounds and the Grizzlies only pulling in a total of 39 for the game.<\/span><\/p>\n

Bam has hit 12+ in six of his last ten games – think he\u2019s a great chance at a nice price to do so again.<\/span><\/p>\n

Heat +3.5 \/ Mitchell 10+ Points \/ Wells 10+ Points \/ Adebayo 12+ Rebounds = $8.00<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n
