Naz Reid H/L Than 10.5 Points
Game one could prove to be a difficult matchup for Naz Reid.
Reid is a valuable role player who can light it up on occasion, but his volatility makes the over on his points prop risky – especially against an elite defense like OKC’s.
The Thunder have multiple defenders they can rotate onto Reid, and since most of his scoring comes from beyond the arc, it’s worth noting they ranked 2nd in 3-point field goal percentage allowed this season.
Stokastic’s NBA DFS Projections also have Reid finishing below 11 points, adding to the case for a fade in Game 1.
Underdog Fantasy Pick’em Prediction: Naz Reid Lower Than 10.5 Points
Anthony Edwards H/L Than 6.5 Rebounds
The Timberwolves are going to need everything they’ve got to keep pace in this series – and that starts with Anthony Edwards making an impact in every facet of the game, including on the glass.
Against a team like OKC, second-chance points can be a backbreaker, and Minnesota’s bigs will have their hands full. That should open the door for Edwards to play a bigger role on the boards. He’s already been solid in that area, averaging 8 rebounds per game this postseason.
We’re getting a bit of plus money on this prop, and there’s added backing from Stokastic’s NBA DFS Projections, which peg Edwards for 7 rebounds tonight.
Underdog Fantasy Pick’em Prediction: Anthony Edwards Higher Than 6.5 Rebounds
