Summer League Championship: Golden State Warriors vs. Memphis Grizzlies Prediction, Props & Best Bets
The Golden State Warriors meet the Memphis Grizzlies in the Championship game of the 2026 NBA Summer League in Las Vegas on Sunday night.
Golden State Warriors vs. Memphis Grizzlies betting picks and predictions
Memphis Grizzlies -3.5 (-110)
This has been an encouraging NBA Summer League campaign for Memphis, who moved into rebuilding mode by dealing away former All-Star Jaren Jackson Jr. at the trade deadline earlier this year.
The Grizzlies’ Summer League squad is led by Cameron Boozer, who they selected with the third pick in last month’s draft. Boozer, son of former All-Star Carlos, was a standout at Duke last season, and he’s the player who Memphis will look to build around after moving on from Ja Morant.
The Grizzlies have a 4-1 record in Las Vegas, which includes a 106-85 victory over the Golden State Warriors earlier this weekend.
Golden State rebounded from that defeat to make the semifinals, where they edged out the Los Angeles Lakers 92-88. Unlike the Grizzlies, few members of this Warriors team are expected to feature in the full roster next season, bar last month’s draft pick Yaxel Lendeborg.
The Grizzlies are one of the best developmental organisations in basketball, and they are amassing some good young talent in this rebuild.
Memphis has won its last three games by 21, 32, and 11 points, and is capable of clearing a -3.5 handicap on the way to claiming the Summer League crown.
Olivier-Maxence Prosper 15+ points (-150)
Olivier-Maxence Prosper looks like a promising pick-up for Memphis after he was cut by the Dallas Mavericks. The Canadian is a threat on both sides of the ball, but his scoring has been important to Memphis during this Summer League run.
He scored 18 points in only 23 minutes in their victory over the Atlanta Hawks, which sent them into the semifinals. He posted 15 points in their victory over the Houston Rockets in the semis, and his scoring can carry into Sunday’s final.
Prosper had 17 and 16 points across his two appearances in the Salt Lake City Summer League, so he’s posted at least 15 points in five of his last six appearances for the Grizzlies this summer.
The 2023 first-round pick is one of the most experienced players on either roster, and he can make the most of that to score another 15 points.
Javon Small 7+ assists (-125)
Small played in half of the Grizzlies’ games last year after being drafted in the second round, but he’s getting vital experience in this Summer League run.
The guard is making the most of playing alongside some established scorers at this level. He recorded nine assists in their opening game at Salt Lake City Summer League, and the guard thrived in the win over the Warriors, pouring in 26 points alongside seven assists.
Small is proving himself as a real threat, and he’s recorded seven assists in two of his last three games. He’s -125 to repeat that feat against the Warriors.
