The Oklahoma City Thunder enter Saturday with a commanding 2-0 lead in their Western Conference Semifinals series against the Minnesota Timberwolves. Shai Gilgeous-Alexander has led this team to a dominant run all season long, and now they’re just two games away from punching a ticket to the franchise’s first NBA Finals appearance since 2012.
With these title hopefuls battling once more this evening, here’s the top Shai Gilgeous-Alexander prop bets on DraftKings Sportsbook for Thunder vs. Timberwolves Game 3.
Best Shai Gilgeous-Alexander prop bets on DraftKings Sportsbook
The Thunder enter tonight’s Game 3 as narrow 2.5-point favorites with -142 odds to win on the Moneyline. They’re listed at -112 to cover the spread, while the game total comes in at 218 combined points.
DraftKings Sportsbook lists Gilgeous-Alexander’s prop lines at 32.5 points, 4.5 rebounds, 6.5 assists, and 1.5 three-pointers. His combined PTS + REB + AST line is set at 44.5 across the three major categories.
Gilgeous-Alexander has appeared in 13 postseason games so far. Over that span, he averages 29.8 points, 5.6 rebounds, and 6.7 assists per contest with shooting splits of 47.5% from the field and 28.1% from three-point range. He’s carrying this Thunder team, especially through the first two games of this series against Minnesota — SGA averages 34.5 points and 8.5 assists to open the Western Conference Finals.
Over 6.5 assists looks like the top Gilgeous-Alexander prop bet tonight, or at least one of the most reliable plays. The -130 odds of SGA going over this line won’t excite most bettors, but there’s reason to feel confident in this avenue. The 2025 NBA MVP has crossed the 6.5-assist threshold in seven of his 13 playoff appearances thus far, including performances of nine and eight assists in the first two games of this series.
The ball ends up in Gilgeous-Alexander’s hands on almost every single possession, so he typically dishes out plenty of dimes to begin with. In the regular season, he averaged 6.4 dimes per game, but the Wolves defense has aggressively keyed on him to start this series and allowed the star guard to make plays for his teammates. Watch for SGA to go over 6.5 assists once more tonight as he carries the Thunder to a 3-0 lead over the Timberwolves.
