Shai Gilgeous-Alexander Over 5.5 Assists (-110)
Shai Gilgeous-Alexander has been a consistent playmaker for the Thunder this season, averaging 6.38 assists per game, which is well above the line set at 5.5 assists. His performance against the Timberwolves has been particularly impressive, averaging 6.33 assists in their matchups. Moreover, his home-court advantage seems to play a role in his distribution, as he averages 6.62 assists at home. The last 10 games have seen him slightly dip to 6.2 assists per game, but this is still above the line, and with the Thunder looking to recover from their loss to the Pistons, Gilgeous-Alexander’s role as a facilitator will be more important than ever. His ability to create plays and find open teammates will be key in breaking down the Timberwolves’ defense, and given his track record this season, it’s reasonable to expect him to exceed the assists line once again.
Shai Gilgeous-Alexander Over 0.5 Blocks (+110)
Shai Gilgeous-Alexander’s defensive contributions often go under the radar, but his blocking ability has been notable this season. He’s averaging 0.76 blocks per game, which is higher than the prop line of 0.5 blocks. Against the Timberwolves, he’s been even more prolific, averaging 1.0 block per game. While his last 5 games average has dipped to 0.4, it’s important to consider the matchup and the significance of the game. The Timberwolves have dynamic scorers who drive to the basket, which could present Gilgeous-Alexander with more opportunities to add to his block tally. Additionally, the Thunder’s defensive strategy often allows their guards to make plays on the ball, and Gilgeous-Alexander’s athleticism and timing make him a threat to opposing shooters. With the Thunder’s home winning streak on the line, expect Gilgeous-Alexander to be fully engaged on the defensive end, making the over on blocks a compelling pick.
