With two teams sweeping their way to the Final Four, there are two spots remaining in the Conference Finals of the NBA Playoffs. Both series still in play are knotted at 2-2, and in the West, we’re seeing Victor Wembanyama face his first real playoff test. The unanimous Defensive Player of the Year has put together some insane playoff performances through eight games, such as his 39 points and 15-rebound performance against the Minnesota Timberwolves in Game 3 to go up 2-1. However, the Wolves’ physical defense that has powered them to repeat Western Conference Finals appearances has managed to bother Wembanyama, resulting in a dirty frustration foul from the Frenchman that got him ejected from Game 4. The Wolves narrowly avoided going down 3-1 in Wembanyama’s absence, evening the series on its way back to San Antonio. Game 5 represents a pivotal moment in Wembanyama’s young career. Will his poor decision and ensuing ejection in Game 4 be the story of what flipped this series, or will it be a small blip in his first postseason that gets forgotten to time as the Spurs reach the Conference Finals?To come out a winner during these NBA Playoffs, here are tonight’s TST Best Bets brought to you by BetOnline.ag.
