KAT scored 21+ points in 3\/4 regular season games against Philadelphia, and he only fell short with a 10-point effort due to playing only 16 minutes after an injury. <\/p>\n\n\n\n The spread is -7.5 tonight and the Sixers should keep the score a bit closer while leaving Towns with enough court time to clear this line.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n We cashed this play with the number set at 5.5 in Game 1 as Naz Reid logged 9 rebounds across 30 minutes of play. <\/p>\n\n\n\n We were spot on about\u00a0Rudy Gobert seeing limited minutes as he doesn’t have the ability to pull Victor Wembanyama from the paint. <\/p>\n\n\n\n In the earlier matchup with Gobert on the court, Reid usually guarded the corner and when Gobert was off the floor the Wolves decided to defend Wemby with Julius Randle. <\/p>\n\n\n\n That left Reid free to roam and collect additional rebounds. Reid also\u00a0logged 11 rebounds on 18 rebound chances across 32 minutes in his lone head-to-head game with Wembanyama on the floor during the regular season. <\/p>\n\n\n\n Naz cleared this line in 5\/6 games in the prior series against the Denver Nuggets while averaging 7 rebounds on 10.5 rebound chances per game.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n The Minnesota Timberwolves have been decimated by injuries including Donte DiVincenzo dealing suffering a torn ACL and Anthony Edwards dealing with a bone bruise. <\/p>\n\n\n\n I see Reid being more valuable than Gobert in this series and this is a reasonable number that he’s cleared in 64% of his games while averaging 6.3 rebounds per game.<\/p>\n\n\n\nNBA Props Picks for Wednesday: Karl-Anthony Towns New York Knicks OVER 18.5 Points (-114)<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
