@AustinsProps' NBA Monday Play of the Day - 1/16

Austin's Play of the Day for Monday's NBA action between the Phoenix Suns and Memphis Grizzlies is live!

We’re coming off back to back wins and we look to build off that tonight. Looking at today’s NBA slate there is a ton of injuries popping up making this a very difficult slate to cover. For that reason I’m targeting Memphis who is healthy taking on the most injured team in the league in the Phoenix Suns. The Suns will be without their best two players in Devin Booker, Chris Paul, and a plethora of role players. This team has played awful as of recent and desperately need to get healthy in order to compete at all.

Memphis is relatively healthy the only question mark is if Ja Morant will be a go which as of now it appears likely he will play. Memphis is one of the best home covering teams in the NBA currently sitting at 13-7-1 against the spread. This game in my opinion has blowout written all over it and it wouldn’t surprise me in the slightest if we see that tonight. The Suns has also only 1 of their last 5 games and look to be completely depleted this season. I’m keeping it simple and trusting the numbers with this spot.
