Raptors at Grizzlies: How to Watch, Odds, & Picks for Monday's Game
The Toronto Raptors will see a old friend Monday night when they make the trip over to Memphis to take on Jonas Valanciunas and the Memphis Grizzlies.
It's been a very strange season for the Grizzlies who have battled COVID-19 concerns and injuries for much of the year. Valanciunas only recently returned to the lineup after a five-game absence due to the league's health and safety protocols. He came off the bench on Saturday night as he worked his way back into the flow of things. Canadian Brandon Clarke, however, will miss his second straight game due to a right calf injury.
Toronto will once again be without OG Anunoby who remains out with a left calf strain. His absence shouldn't be too costly against a very young and inexperienced Grizzlies team.
Look for Memphis sophomore star Ja Morant to do the bulk of the heavy lifting for the Grizzlies with Canadian Dillon Brooks chipping in from time to time.

Pick of the Game
Kyle Anderson over 1.5 3-pointers at +120 seems like very good value. He should get extra playing time tonight with Clarke out of the lineup and he's recorded at least two 3-pointers in five of the last eight games and four of the last six. Considering the Raptors surrender the fifth-most 3-pointers per game in the NBA, Anderson should be able to hit the over.
