The Lakers are a perfect 5-0 at home, taking care of business against a couple of weak opponents in recent games, but prior to that they fell by 17 in Memphis as the Grizzlies showcased the kind of basketball they're capable of playing at the moment.

What can we learn from that game as it pertains to the many player prop markets available for this one?

Let's build a same-game parlay for Grizzlies vs Lakers on Wednesday, November 13th and lay out a few props that will work well as standalone straight bets as well.

Austin Reaves Over 17.5 Points

My plan of attack here is to go after the Grizzlies' backcourt. Ja Morant has already been ruled out for this game, and Marcus Smart is in danger of missing a seventh straight game with a questionable tag.

• Even if Smart does suit up here, it's hard to see him playing enough -- or playing effectively enough -- to uphold the excellent performance of this backcourt in the early going.

That brings me to Austin Reaves, who's been a scoring machine this season. He's scored 18 or more in four of his last five and ranks in the top 32% or higher in shooting at every zone on the floor.

• The Grizzlies may own excellent defensive marks in every spot on the floor, but one thing to note here is that they've allowed 42.2% of their opponents' shots to come from 3 -- the third-highest number in the NBA.

Reaves has launched 9.5 times per game from deep in his last four contests, and did put up 19 points against the Grizzlies a few games back in spite of a 2-for-9 showing from 3.

That was against a Morant-led backcourt, and now with out Morant and perhaps Smart as well, I expect a big night out of the tantalizing scorer.

Cam Reddish Over 6.5 Points

Another man we can look to in our pursuit of profits against a weakened Grizzlies frontcourt is L.A.'s brand new starting guard, Cam Reddish.

• The journeyman has now seen increased run in each of the last three games, playing a season-high 28 minutes last time out, and had plenty of success against the Grizzlies just like Reaves with 15 points on 5-of-7 shooting.

Reddish has now eclipsed this mark by quite a large margin twice in the last three, with the defense of Paul George helping limit him to just one field goal attempt against the 76ers over the weekend.

With the state of this Grizzlies backcourt, Reddish should be able to get a few shots off here and in shooting 68.8% in a small sample, I think there's plenty of reason to believe he can score a measly seven points here.

Santi Aldama Over 22.5 Points, Rebounds + Assists

The Lakers' frontcourt may be menacing to opponents, but the good news is that big man Santi Aldama has been operating around the perimeter this season and should be in a good position to do it all for this Grizzlies offense.

• Without Morant for this one, Aldama should be leaned on a bit for his newfound play-making ability, which has led him to go for 3.7 assists per game which is over two more than his career average.

The Laker rank 27th in assists allowed per 100 possessions this season, and also 26th in rim defense according to Cleaning the Glass, so I think Aldama should be able to rack up numbers whether he's camped out at the arc or operating down low.

With the ball in his hands down low, he can score or find open men just as many bigs have against the Lakers, and that's a large reason as to why he shattered this mark the last time he faced off with L.A.

Aldama also managed a team-high 12 rebounds in that game, and we can expect that again here with the Lakers sitting just 21st in rebounding rate.
