Shai Gilgeous-Alexander averaged just 1.4 triples in 12 playoff games and hit the Over on this line five times. He nailed multiple triples in 48 of 76 regular season games, including an average of 2.5 in four matchups with the Wolves in which he hit the Over three times. SGA failed to convert any of his four 3-point attempts in Game 1, but I expect an improved performance and additional attempts in Game 2. Minnesota is middle-of-the-pack in opponent 3-point percentage and opponent 3-point makes in the postseason, so the matchup certainly isn’t scary.
