Don’t overthink this one. Shai Gilgeous-Alexander is a back-to-back MVP, an elite scorer, and his team needs him more than ever right now. This total is sitting at 28.5 points — not 30.5 or 31.5, which is more typical for Gilgeous-Alexander — and a big reason for that is he finished well below his scoring totals in the previous series… because the Oklahoma City Thunder didn’t need his scoring against the Lakers. Now, down 0-1 in the series, elevated minutes and usage are absolutely on the table in this spot. If you go back and watch Game 1, where he shot 7-for-23 from the field, he was still getting to his spots in the mid-range. He just missed shots he normally makes. Mark Daigneault is also an excellent coach, and I expect him to run actions designed to pull Victor Wembanyama away from the paint as a help defender against SGA. At 28.5 points, I think this is a number we can attack, as I price the Over closer to -155.
