The Oklahoma City Thunder have a 2-0 lead in the Western Conference Finals, but they will travel to Minnesota for Game 3 tonight at 8:30 p.m. ET. The Timberwolves are +3 underdogs at home on DraftKings Sportsbook. The Wolves are 4-1 at home this postseason.
Jaden McDaniels scored 22 points in Game 2, which was his most since Game 3 against the Los Angeles Lakers in the first round. Here is my favorite prop bet for McDaniels in Game 3 against the Thunder.
Jaden McDaniels over 13.5 Points (-105)
Even though McDaniels has three games under 10 points this postseason, he has shown his ceiling is still high on any given night. You can get McDaniels to record over 13.5 points at -105 on DraftKings Sportsbook tonight in Game 3. McDaniels has hit this scoring mark in four of his previous six contests.
McDaniels averages 15.3 points per game in the playoffs, 3.1 more than he did in the regular season. A big part is that he is attempting 11 field goals per contest this postseason, as he averaged 10.2 during the 82-game season. Although the Thunder are a fantastic defensive team, McDaniels has had 14 or more points in four of his last five games against them.
He has recorded over 13.5 points in three of four games this postseason. This season, McDaniels is averaging one more point per game at home than on the road. If McDaniels can attempt 12 or more field goals in Game 3, he will be in a good position to record more than 13.5 points.
