As the Minnesota Timberwolves prepare to face off against the Houston Rockets, all eyes should be on Jaden McDaniels, specifically for his three-point shooting. While McDaniels has shown flashes of brilliance, the current matchup points to a more reserved performance. At home, he's averaging just one three-pointer made over his last five games, and against the Rockets, that number dwindles even further to 0.4. It's not just about the numbers, though; Houston's defense has been solid against perimeter shooters, limiting opponents effectively. With McDaniels hitting only 11 of his last 13 outings, it's clear he's been more selective lately, and we can expect that trend to continue. Given the implications of this matchup, targeting the under on his threes made at 1.5 is a savvy play. The data suggests McDaniels may struggle to find his rhythm tonight, making this a compelling angle to consider.
