Best Mavericks vs. Thunder prop predictions
Shai Gilgeous-Alexander Over 5.5 assists ⭐⭐⭐⭐
Best odds: -140 via BetMGM | Implied probability: 58.33%
Gilgeous-Alexander is coming off a four-assist performance against the New Orleans Pelicans, marking the second game in a row that he’s finished below this prop.
But the volume has been there for the Thunder guard.
He has averaged 41.2 passes made and 12.2 potential assists per game over his last five outings and now gets a potential track meet against the Mavericks, which is why this Over has moved from -130 overnight.
Klay Thompson Over 2.5 made 3-pointers ⭐⭐⭐
Best odds: -120 via bet365 | Implied probability: 54.55%
Thompson played 25 minutes on Saturday, marking his most playing time since Nov. 24. He went 8-for-16 from the floor, including 3-for-9 from long range, to finish with 20 points.
If the Mavs shooting guard gets that kind of playing time and volume on Tuesday, I like his chances of hitting three triples. Opposing teams have a 3-point frequency of 45.5% against the Thunder, the third-highest clip in the league.
Thompson has hit at least three triples in back-to-back games and four of his previous six contests. I’ll take the -120 price on that trend continuing in Oklahoma City.
Jalen Williams Under 5.5 rebounds ⭐⭐⭐
Best odds: -115 via DraftKings | Implied probability: 53.49%
This is a bit of a revenge game for Williams after last year’s performance against the Mavericks in the Western Conference semifinals, but I doubt he does his damage on the glass.
The Thunder forward has finished below 5.5 rebounds in four of his past seven games, which coincides with the Thunder getting healthier in the frontcourt. He averages 5.1 rebounds per contest since center Isaiah Hartenstein debuted on Nov. 20.
This under is playable at -119 or better.
