3 Best Prop Bets for Clippers vs. Timberwolves
- Paul George UNDER 27.5 Points (+100)
- Paul George OVER 6 Rebounds (+100)
- Paul George OVER 1.5 Steals (-145)
Paul George UNDER 27.5 Points (+100)
The Los Angeles Clippers are finally healthy with Paul George making his long-awaited return recently. While his presence on the court is a huge plus for the Clippers, it should be noted that his scoring has been down since getting back to action. Aside from his first game back where he went off for 34 points, he hasn't gone over this total once.
Even in an OT game against the Bulls, he managed just 22 points. I think George makes his contributions in other areas tonight.
Paul George OVER 6 Rebounds (+100)
Despite his scoring woes, George has been productive on the glass in the five games he’s played since returning. And his rebounding numbers continue to swell. He grabbed just two in his return, combined for 17 rebounds over his last two games.
I think that this trend continues against the Timberwolves tonight.
Paul George OVER 1.5 Steals (-145)
George’s defense is another area that he has been excelling in since his return. George has at least two steals in all five games since getting back on the hardwood. He nabbed four in his first game back and has 14 total swipes since March 29.
Minnesota has eight players who average at least one turnover per game and I think George goes over this total and then some.
