In the 10th and final NBA game of the night, the Memphis Grizzlies visit the struggling Phoenix Suns on Wednesday.
The pregame narrative: Phoenix is 1-3 straight up and 0-3-1 ATS to start the season. And the team is on a five-game losing skid vs. Memphis dating back to January 2024. The Suns are slight underdogs in a game with the highest projected total of the night.
Check out my Grizzlies vs. Suns SGP predictions for Oct. 29, with prop bets on Devin Booker and Kentavious Caldwell-Pope.

Grizzlies vs. Suns predictions
Parlay: Booker over 30.5 pts | Caldwell-Pope over 1.5 threes | Over 239.5 points (+295)
Booker over 30.5 points (-118): With Kevin Durant and Bradley Beal gone, the Suns aren’t exactly teeming with scoring options.
Booker is the obvious (and justified) alpha dog of the bunch. I expect him to act like it on Wednesday.
- Four games into the season, Booker has already scored 30+ points three times. He’s shooting 50.7% from the floor
- Booker is eighth in the NBA in free throw attempts per game (10.3), and he’s canning them at an 80.5% clip.
-> Bet on Devin Booker to go off vs. Grizzlies
Phoenix’s most high-volume shooter is Dillon Brooks (19.7 FGA), but he’s out tonight with a groin injury. So expect even more shots for Booker.
The Grizzlies have allowed the most PPG to opposing shooting guards so far this season (29.46), according to Fantasy Pros.
NBA SGP legs
Caldwell-Pope over 1.5 threes (-143): No one has really gotten going from beyond the arc for the Grizzlies yet, but Caldwell-Pope’s steady shot volume from deep makes him stand out to me.
- 4+ attempted 3s in every game
- 1+ made 3s in every game
- 2-2 vs. this milestone

KCP has averaged 5.3 attempted 3s per game, and if he keeps that up, this pick will be in play on a nightly basis.
Phoenix is currently allowing the ninth-highest 3PT% in the NBA (37.6%).
Last year was a bit of a lost season for KCP in Orlando, but he’s still known as a sharpshooter from deep. In five seasons from 2019-24, he posted a 40.3 3PT%.
Over 239.5 points (-138): Neither team has put on a defensive clinic to this point, and I expect tons of scoring on both sides tonight.
- Overs are 3-1-0 in Grizzlies games so far, thanks in large part to their lightning-quick pace (No. 2 in the NBA).
- Overs are 4-0-0 in Suns games so far, thanks in large part to their brutally poor defensive rating (No. 29 in the NBA).
Memphis’ games have averaged 247.5 points and cashed this over in three of four games. If the Grizzlies continue to push the pace, the scoring will follow.
Two notable players on the defensive end, Brooks and Zach Edey (Grizzlies), are out tonight. Their absences should help free up some scoring opportunities, too.
