Victor Wembanyama put up a historical capacity successful nan play opener pinch 40 points and 15 rebounds, but he only made 1 3-pointer. Granted, he didn’t really request to do overmuch from heavy erstwhile he was dominating for illustration he was, and he did only effort 2 shots from agelong range.

The Pelicans whitethorn effort their champion they tin to support Wembanyama to nan outside, and he’ll beryllium happy to oblige.

Wembanyama averaged 3.1 3-pointers made per crippled connected 8.8 attempts. He made astatine slightest 2 3-pointers successful 35 of his 46 games, including 3 successful his only crippled against nan Pelicans.

I’ll salary nan juice present and return him to make aggregate 3s, and wouldn’t dislike taking complete 2.5 3 pointers made astatine +164 arsenic well.

These were 2 of nan astir profitable teams erstwhile betting nan complete past season. The Spurs went 46-25-1 (+7.50 units) to nan over, pinch nan Pelicans correct down them astatine 45-35-2 (+6.50 units), according to EV Analytics. 

The Spurs didn’t get to nan complete successful their opener, but that was simply owed to nan Mavericks only putting up 92 points to San Antonio’s 125. The Pelicans, meanwhile, easy went complete their full of 236 pinch a 128-122 nonaccomplishment successful Memphis.

This is simply a precocious full present astatine 232.5, but it’s not precocious capable for a Spurs squad that will person nary problem getting to nan 120s themselves. It’s conscionable up to nan Pelicans to grip nan rest, and they should successful a high-paced game.

Pick: Over 232.5 (-108)
