Indiana star point guard Tyrese Haliburton is having a tough time cracking the Bucks defense, putting up scoring efforts of just nine and 12 points in the first two games. However, he did find success from beyond the arc in Game 2, knocking down 3 of 7 shots from 3-point range. Those attempts are much more in line with Haliburton’s season activity from outside, averaging 2.8 makes on 7.8 attempts from distance. His Over/Under on 3-pointers makes is at 2.5 with the Over priced as low as -110. If Haliburton does have a breakout game on the score sheet, you can be sure plenty of those points will come from 3-point land.

Leonard's status for Game 3 in Dallas is officially questionable, but it very much sounds like L.A. will have its star in action after he played 35 minutes in Game 2 - his first outing in three weeks. He struggled shooting but did haul in seven rebounds in those minutes. Player projections forecast between 33 and 38 minutes for Kawhi and call for six-plus rebounds in that time, with a ceiling closer to seven boards. My initial number comes out to 6.3 rebounds in those modest minutes for Game 3. His rebounding total for tonight is 5.5 O/U with the Over jumping from -115 to -142 at some sharper sportsbooks on Friday morning. Shopping around, you can find that same offering with the Over as low as -120.

Reid, who averages 13.5 points over 24 minutes per game on the season, has seen less floor time in the first two games of the series. That has a lot to do with the T-Wolves dominance, holding leads of 19 and 27 points in those contests. With Game 3 in Phoenix and Minnesota a 4-point road underdog, game script says the Timberwolves need to put their best foot forward. That means leaning into their top reserve for maximum minutes off the bench. Player forecasts for Reid range from a low of 9.7 points to a ceiling closer to 14, with my number sitting at 11.3 versus the Suns tonight. Given that projection, the Over 8.5 points should be priced around -210.

While no bet is guaranteed, some are considered more predictable. Moneyline bets on favorites and 'over/under' bets, based on detailed knowledge of the teams or players, can be seen as more predictable. However, unpredictability is innate to betting and these bet types can still lose. Thorough research and responsible betting practices are always important.
