The Minnesota Timberwolves are on the ropes, down 2-0 to the Oklahoma City Thunder as they return home for Game 3.
Two blowout losses definitely have an effect on our game plan too, as we piece together a lineup of Thunder vs. Timberwolves props.
In what amounts to their (virtual) last stand, check out my favorite three-legged, same-game parlay for tonight's matchup.
Thunder vs Timberwolves SGP - May 24
Shai Gilgeous-Alexander Over 32.5 points
Julius Randle Over 4.5 first-quarter points
Jalen Williams Over 4.5 assists
Shai Gilgeous-Alexander has been a wrecking ball in this series and for much of the playoffs. On MVP Trophy night, Shai ripped the Minnesota Timberwolves for a playoff-high 38 points, marking the fifth straight game he’s reached the 30-point mark, and the ninth time in 13 playoff games.
The books have adjusted, but in all honesty, how much higher can you set a line than 32.5 points before the Under becomes the more enticing bet?
Meanwhile, Julius Randle should be heavily motivated for Game 3. The rugged power forward became an observer in Game 2, sitting the entire fourth quarter after turning in his worst game of these playoffs.
He had scored at least 24 points in five straight games before Game 2’s dud, going 2-for-11 from the field for six points, adding five rebounds and five assists. After torching OKC with a 5-for-6 line in Game 1, he also missed all three attempts from downtown.
A short memory and bounceback is necessary, and him getting at least five points in a quarter is as favorable a bet as you’re going to find.
We’ll wrap with Jalen Williams, who continues to work playmaking into his wide catalogue of do-everything for the Thunder.
He went for 26 points and 10 boards in Game 2, and also added five assists, marking the fourth straight time and 11th in 13 playoff games that Williams has registered 5+ dimes. The books again have his line at 4.5, so roll this into your SGP and thank me later.
