Best Spurs vs Timberwolves props for Game 4

Pick
Naz Reid
3+ threes

Victor Wembanyama
Over 12.5 rebounds

Jaden McDaniels
Over 15.5 points

Game 4 Prop #1: Naz Reid 3+ threes
+230 at bet365
Ignoring a game in which he played five minutes due to injury, Naz Reid has now played five games against the San Antonio Spurs this season. In those five games, he is 15-for-29 (51.7%) from beyond the arc, hitting at least three 3-pointers four times.
The Minnesota Timberwolves’ sixth man should see starter’s minutes tonight. He played 16 in Friday’s second half, nearly three more than Julius Randle did.

Of the Timberwolves’ three big men, Reid is the best fit to counter the Spurs. So, whether it is Rudy Gobert’s or Randle’s minutes that take a hit, expect Reid’s minutes to increase.
Not that he needs many minutes to hit a few triples.
Game 4 Prop #2: Victor Wembanyama Over 12.5 rebounds

There is a want to point out that Victor Wembanyama was clearly winded late in Game 3. And Minnesota should absolutely prioritize driving into the Defensive Player of the Year’s body to both further that fatigue and to try to draw some fouls. Wembanyama had five on Friday; challenging him a bit more often could have been decisive.

But the reality is that Wembanyama has grabbed 15 rebounds in all three games of the series, in part because he played 40 minutes in Game 1 and 37 minutes in Game 3.
With an extra day between Games 4 and 5, there is no reason for San Antonio not to ride Wembanyama tonight. The Spurs know how much of a difference he makes on the court. If tonight is competitive, expect Wembanyama to play 40+…
