Victor Wembanyama and the San Antonio Spurs are in a huge hole heading into Game 3. No team has ever come back to win a series after going down 3-0, so this is a must-win for the Spurs.
The Knicks are 2.5-point favorites and -130 on the moneyline on DraftKings Sportsbook for Game 3 in New York. The Spurs are +110, with the game total set at 215.5 points.
Let’s dive into my favorite Victor Wembanyama player props for the Game 3 contest.
Best Victor Wembanyama prop bets on DraftKings Sportsbook
Victor Wembanyama Over 11.5 Rebounds (-116)
It’s safe to say that Wemby has looked like a human through two games of this series, and Karl-Anthony Towns has gotten the better of him. That being said, it’s now or never for the Spurs and the Frenchman has no choice but to have a great game in this contest. He has gone over this total in one of the two games of this series so far. He averaged exactly 11.5 rebounds per game during the regular season, and in three regular season matchups with New York, he went over this total in two of those games. In total, he’s gone over this number in three of five games against the Knicks this season. Expect Wemby to be ultra aggressive in Game 3, in all departments.
Victor Wembanyama Under 26.5 Points (-107)
Wemby has gone under this total in one of the two games so far this series and is averaging 23.6 points per game in the postseason, slightly down from his 25 points per game in the regular season. In three regular season games against the Knicks, he went under this total twice. I expect Wemby to put up some points in this game for sure, but 27 or more seems like a stretch. He has gone under this total in five of his last eight games in this playoff run. The Frenchman will stuff the stat sheet undoubtedly, but he hasn’t shown in this series so far the ability to have a monster scoring night.
