Memphis gutted w/o Morant (30% usage), Edey, Wells - model drops their eFG% -22% and pace -12%. Houston loses FVV/Adams but Durant/Sengun feast on depleted Grizz D (proj HOU 118-96). Total crushes under at 214 vs 226.5 line as both benches thin.
SHARP MONEY
HOU -800 ML with -12.5 spread shows heavy action on road favorite vs injury-ravaged home dog; no RLM possible without open
