Wagered 75 dollars to win 44.12 dollars.
The game is between Lakers / Grizzlies.
(+9.5) means that Lakers will either have to win outright or lose by under 9.5 points for it to be a winning wager.
essentially the spread for the lakers was set at +6.5 and he bought 3 points which means he gave up a higher return to push the spread for his bet to +9.5 in order to be a safer bet.
