Keldon Johnson (San Antonio Spurs) Over 14.5 Points + Rebounds (-108)

Recently, Johnson has been on fire, averaging 16.6 points and 6.2 rebounds at home over his last five games. Against the Blazers, he's even more effective, racking up an impressive 14.8 points and 9 rebounds in their recent matchups at the AT&T Center.With a flawless hit rate of 4-for-4 in his last games and 6-for-6 at home, it's clear that Johnson thrives in familiar surroundings.

Victor Wembanyama (San Antonio Spurs) Under 2.5 Threes Made (-139)

As the Spurs gear up to face the Trail Blazers at home, eyes will be on Victor Wembanyama's three-point shooting. While his recent form shows flashes of brilliance, hitting over 2.5 threes isn't a lock. Sure, he's knocked down an impressive 3 per game against Portland at home recently, but let's dive deeper. In his last five home games, he's averaged just 1.8 threes, and his overall mark dips to 2 in his last five outings. The matchup against Portland can be deceiving-though he's done well against them historically, the pressure of the home crowd might not translate into extra long-range success. With a hit rate of 4 out of 5 at home, it's clear he can perform, but we might see him focus more on driving to the basket against a porous Blazers defense. Taking the under on 2.5 threes feels like the smart play here.

Victor Wembanyama (San Antonio Spurs) Under 11.5 Rebounds (+106)

As the Spurs gear up to face the Trail Blazers, it's worth considering Victor Wembanyama's rebounding output, particularly with the line set at 11.5. Despite his towering presence and undeniable talent, Wembanyama has averaged just 10.8 rebounds at home over his last five games. When matched against Portland, he's pulled down an average of only 9 boards, which suggests the Blazers might just have a knack for limiting his impact on the glass.Digging deeper, in the last 19 home games, he's only gone over this line 11 times, and his expected stat value of 10.67 tells us he's trending downward. Given these numbers and the potential for the Spurs to spread the ball around, the under seems to be the smart play here. In a matchup that might see him sharing the floor with fellow bigs, it's reasonable to expect Wembanyama to stay below that 11.5 mark tonight.
