Jaden McDaniels (Minnesota Timberwolves) Under 2.5 Assists (-172)
Odds available at draftkings at time of publishingAs the Timberwolves take to the court in Oklahoma City, all eyes are on Jaden McDaniels, particularly when it comes to his playmaking. While McDaniels has shown flashes of brilliance, backing the under on his assists total of 2.5 feels like the right play tonight. Over the last eight away games, he's averaged just 1.4 assists, and against the Thunder, that figure dips further to 1.6. Even more telling, in his last 11 games, he's only cleared this mark twice, hitting the under nine times. The Thunder's defense is known for tightening up in crucial moments, and with McDaniels primarily focused on scoring, he may not see ample opportunities to dish the rock. With the odds aligning favorably at -172.41, we can confidently lean toward the under-everything suggests this could be a night where McDaniels plays a more muted role.
