The Thunder are hosting the Spurs on Sunday. On DraftKings Sportsbook, Oklahoma City is favored by 13 points and this game carries a total of 237.5 points.

Below, I have featured my favorite Shai Gilgeous-Alexander prop bet to consider from this contest.

Best Shai Gilgeous-Alexander Prop Bets on DraftKings Sportsbook

Shai Gilgeous-Alexander O 1.5 Made Three Pointers + Thunder ML (-130)

This is a very appealing two-pick SGP to attack for Sunday’s matchup between the Thunder and Spurs. Chet Holmgren (ankle) will be out and in the 41 games Gilgeous-Alexander has played without Holmgren this season, Gilgeous-Alexander is averaging 2.25 made threes on 5.8 attempts per game.

The guard’s usage rate rises 1.2 percentage point to 35.6% with Holmgren off the floor this season and Gilgeous-Alexander has knocked down 3+ three pointers in six of his last 10 starts coming into Sunday. During this 10-game stretch, the guard is shooting 43.6% from beyond the arc.

For the second leg of this SGP, backing the Thunder on the ML is a no-brainer against the Victor Wembanyama-less Spurs, who are playing their second game in two nights. San Antonio is 2-4 since losing the big man for the season and they are 2-8 on the second leg of back-to-back sets this season. Meanwhile, the Thunder are 8-2 in their last 10, and 34-7 without Holmgren this season.
