Prop #1 – Victor Wembanyama Over 24.5 Points<\/h2>

Over 24.5 Points (-112 at FanDuel<\/a>)<\/p>

Wembanyama has averaged 23.7 points per game this season, logging steady minutes and maintaining strong efficiency. His usage rate remains high, with consistent shot volume and free‑throw attempts. Philadelphia’s defense is weakened without Joel Embiid, leaving the paint vulnerable.<\/p>

San Antonio has won nine of its last ten, powered by Wembanyama’s dominance inside. His recent production includes 22.6 points per game over his last 10 outings, and he posted 31 against New York in their lone meeting. Given his usage and matchup, we like Wembanyama to clear this number tonight.<\/p>

Prop #2 – Chet Holmgren Over 9.5 Rebounds<\/h2>

Over 9.5 Rebounds (-191 at DraftKings<\/a>)<\/p>

Holmgren has averaged 9.0 rebounds per game this season, with recent form showing 11.3 boards across his last nine contests. His minutes remain steady, and his presence in the paint ensures high rebounding volume.<\/p>

Chicago has struggled on the glass, and Oklahoma City’s pace creates additional rebounding opportunities. Holmgren’s road splits show 8.0 rebounds per game, but his recent surge suggests he’s primed for another strong outing. Given his usage and matchup, we like Holmgren to clear this number tonight.<\/p>

Prop #3 – Jalen Brunson Over 5.5 Assists<\/h2>

Over 5.5 Assists (-156 at BetMGM<\/a>)<\/p>

Brunson has averaged 6.1 assists per game this season, with road splits at 5.5. His minutes remain consistent, and his role expands as New York’s primary playmaker. Toronto’s defense has struggled against guards who can create, allowing elevated assist numbers.<\/p>

Brunson’s recent production includes 6.1 assists per game over his last 10 outings, and he’s averaged 5.0 in three meetings with Toronto. With playoff positioning at stake, his usage should remain high. Given his role and matchup, we like Brunson to clear this number tonight.<\/p>

Same‑Game Parlay Note<\/h3>

If you’re building an SGP, note correlations (e.g., Wembanyama points + Spurs team total over 115.5 are positively correlated).<\/p>
