Victor Wembanyama (San Antonio Spurs) Under 12.5 Rebounds (-104)

Odds available at draftkings at time of publishing

When the San Antonio Spurs face off against the Memphis Grizzlies, all eyes will be on Victor Wembanyama, but betting the under on his rebounds at 12.5 could be a smart play. Despite his towering presence, Wemby has averaged just 11.2 boards over his last five games, and when hitting the road, that number dips slightly to 11.4. His recent matchups against Memphis have been even less fruitful, with only 7.2 rebounds per game in away contests. The Grizzlies are known for their physical play, which can limit second-chance opportunities. Wembanyama has managed to clear this line in only 7 of his last 9 games, suggesting that while he's a force, the context points to a quieter night on the glass. Given his recent performance trends and the matchup dynamics, betting the under feels like the right call here.

When considering Victor Wembanyama's three-point shooting in the upcoming clash against the Memphis Grizzlies, the smart play is to lean towards the under on 2.5 threes made. While he's a promising sharpshooter, recent trends paint a different picture-he's averaging just 1.6 threes per game over his last five outings. Even more telling is his away performance, where he's managed only 1.4 threes in similar scenarios.Against the Grizzlies specifically, his average dips slightly to 1.8 when playing away, suggesting that even in favorable matchups, he's not consistently hitting that 2.5 mark. With a hit rate of 5 for 5 in his last games but facing stiffer competition on the road, it's likely that Wembanyama will fall short of this line. Given these factors, betting the under on his threes made feels like a savvy move tonight.
