Since we're betting on a low-scoring game, let's also bet the first half Under, which has been cashing consistently for both teams.
David Terrell Jr. is coming off a game where he didn't have a single rebound. However, he had eclipsed 4.5 boards in five of his previous six contests, and Memphis ranks 271st in rebounds allowed per game.
