Thunder vs. Timberwolves SGP (+2006)

Please be aware that betting odds may change after the publication of this article.

Timberwolves ML +120

• The Timberwolves enter this matchup understanding that another loss and a 3-0 deficit make it nearly impossible for them to turn things around and keep their season alive.
• Minnesota holds a 4-1 record on its home floor throughout its postseason run.
• Although OKC sports a 3-2 record on the road in these playoffs, they’ve shown signs of struggles along the way. Assuming the T-Wolves look to come out aggressive, they could find a weakness in the Thunder’s game against a hostile environment.

OKC Anthony Edwards 30+ Points +130

• Anthony Edwards struggled in Game 1, but the star guard showed life in Game 2, finishing with 32 points while shooting 46.2% from the field.
• The Georgia product is averaging 26.3 points per game throughout the postseason, but as one of the most electric scorers in the entire league, he can explode for 30+ points on any given night.
• Edwards has recorded four games of 30+ points in the playoffs this year, three of which came in the last five games.

MIN Julius Randle to Score OVER 18.5 Points +102

• In Game 1, Julius Randle was one of the lone bright spots for the Timberwolves, finishing with 28 points, while shooting 69.2% from the field and 83.3% from three.
• In Thursday’s loss, the big man struggled immensely on offense, which lowered the odds for him to score over 19 points on Saturday, a bet with tremendous value.
• Randle has scored 19+ points in nine out of the 12 games this postseason, putting up 22.8 points per game.
• The Timberwolves forward has finished with 19+ points in four out of five games at home in the playoffs.

OKC Jalen Williams OVER 33.5 PTS + REB + AST +106

• Jalen Williams struggled in the Thunder’s second-round series against the Denver Nuggets. However, the two-way talent understood he had to play better if OKC hoped to have a chance to contend for a championship. So far through this WCF, he’s done precisely that.
• Williams is averaging 22.5 points, nine rebounds, and five assists in two games.
• Coming off arguably his best showing of the playoffs, logging 26 points, 10 rebounds, and five assists, I expect Williams to remain aggressive in Game 3.
