Spurs vs. Thunder predictions<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Parlay: Wembanyama over 10.5 rebounds + Holmgren over 1.5 threes + under 225.5 points (+335)<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Wembanyama over 10.5 rebounds (-210):<\/strong> Where else to start with the first leg? <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Embed: #98818<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Wembanyama is coming off a 20-rebound game, his first time reaching double digits this season. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

He’s facing one of the worst rebounding teams in the NBA that sorely lacks an interior presence due to Isaiah Hartenstein’s injury. The Thunder rank third-last in the NBA in rebounding rate. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

And while it’s of course early, OKC was also 28th out of 30 teams in this category a season ago. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Speaking of last season, Wembanyama torched the Thunder on the glass. He topped this number in all three meetings, averaging 13.0 rebounds. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The 7-foot-3 phenom averaged 12.0 boards per game in his rookie season and a couple of quiet rebounding games to start the season mean next to nothing. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Don’t expect 20 again, but count on him to clear this big total. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

SGP legs<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Holmgren over 1.5 threes (-125):<\/strong> The other stud rookie from last year’s class has dropped more than 20 points in all three Thunder games. He’s also averaging 13.0 rebounds a night. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Embed: #98819<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Wembanyama’s ability on the glass and his defensive capabilities have steered me away from Holmgren’s points\/rebounds props, but I still want to target him. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

With the caveat that it’s still early, Holmgren’s minutes are up by 3.0-plus per game. His scoring has erupted (23.7 PPG) but he hasn’t dialled it up from deep yet. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The 22-year-old is 1-2 against this line, taking five attempts in each of them.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

He’s a strong shooter who converted at a 37.0% rate from deep last season, making two-plus threes in 37 of 82 games. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

With the extra run and added scoring output, I think it’s reasonable to expect more 3-balls from Holmgren even if his long-range volume doesn’t explode. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Spurs rank 25th in the NBA in opponent 3-point percentage, surrendering an average of 15.7 per game (fifth-worst).<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Under 225.5 points (-175):<\/strong> These teams have combined for six games and have gone under this total four times.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Embed: #98820<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n

While that might be simplistic, this isn’t: The Thunder have the NBA’s best defensive rating \u2014 by far \u2014 after ranking fourth last season. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Oklahoma City has held two teams under 100 points already and the most it surrendered was 104 to the Atlanta Hawks, who scored 119-plus in each of their other three games. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Even with Wembanyama, the Spurs have been a bottom-of-the-barrel offensive team but respectable on defence.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Having not played since Sunday, the Thunder will be well-rested and should put the clamps on defensively.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
