💰 Best Trail Blazers vs. Spurs prop bet

The Spurs have the third-shortest odds to win the NBA Finals.

Devin Vassell Over 16.5 points + rebounds (-106)

Devin Vassell has been a key role player for the Spurs in this series, and he has a proven track record against the Trail Blazers that shows Over 16.5 points + rebounds is ripe for a wager. He's exceeded this total in all six games versus Portland this season, including the four playoff matchups.

Vassell's dedicated rebounding has more than made up for his subpar shooting numbers in the postseason, which is why I'm not concerned if his 3-point shot continues not to drop. FanDuel has the top value among the best sports betting sites at -106.

Follow all of our NBA analysis and expert predictions this season.

Jrue Holiday Over 22.5 points + assists (-106)

I'm going back to the well with Jrue Holiday's points + assists prop, which I hit on in Game 4. He continues to be a focal point of the Trail Blazers' offense, taking more shots and tallying more assists than he did in the regular season. That's led Holiday to go Over this combo total in three straight games entering Tuesday's matchup. I see no reason for Portland to go away from the veteran with the team's season hanging in the balance.

I placed my wager at FanDuel's market-best -106 odds, but there's value up to -112 here.

Victor Wembanyama Over 3.5 blocks (-110)

Victor Wembanyama played like a demon in his first game back from a concussion. The unanimous NBA Defensive Player of the Year tallied seven blocks to help lead the Spurs in their come-from-behind victory in Game 4. I'm targeting Wemby to keep up that intensity at home with the chance to win the first playoff series of his career. The Frenchman always dominates the paint, but this is a particularly strong matchup given the youth on Portland's roster. That's led to Trail Blazers guards challenging Wembanyama near the basket perhaps more than they should.

🚀 Trail Blazers vs. Spurs same-game parlay

My three-leg parlay focuses on what I see as the most likely outcome: Wembanyama dominates defensively to keep the game Under 215.5. Three of four games in the series have gone Under this total, while Vassell has found a way to be impactful, regardless of whether his shot is falling.
