The Spurs will be ramping up their defense at home and Wemby&#8217;s length should continue to limit Holmgren&#8217;s production.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">NBA Player Props for Friday: Victor Wembanyama San Antonio Spurs OVER 13.5 Rebounds (-129)<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Victor Wembanyama has crushed this line in each of the first two games of the Western Conference Finals with 24 rebounds on 35 rebound chances in Game 1 and 17 rebounds on 27 rebound chances in Game 2. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Wembanyama has been absolutely dominant on the glass, and the books haven&#8217;t fully adjusted to his ridiculous production. Now the series shifts to San Antonio and opposing role players have performed worse on the road historically. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">On top of that, Jalen Williams exited Game 2 early due to his second hamstring injury as he&#8217;s already missed time in the playoffs.
