1.88Tip and bets
Bookmaker experts consider San Antonio to be the undisputed favorite of the upcoming match. In their opinion, Washington will not have many chances to succeed. It's not even worth arguing with them. The Wizards are clearly experiencing a crisis at the moment and can't seem to get out of it. The Spurs, on the other hand, are playing at their own level and have been counting on play-ins for several seasons in a row. But Popovich's team will have to give a real fight to one of the main outsiders of the championship.
Our forecast is for San Antonio to win with a head start (-9.5) points, including overtime in 1.78
Betting on an individual total
San Antonio is showing good performance this season. The average score for the last ten games is 117. In matches with the Wizards — 120. And this time, everything is going to ensure that Popovich's team will be able to improve their statistics.
Our forecast is that San Antonio's individual total is more than 125.5 points, including overtime in 2.08
The bet on the player
Vembanyama played 71 games in the last regular season and averaged 21.4 points per game. This season, his score is already slightly higher — 24.3. The 21-year-old center has definitely not lost his basic skills. The first number of the 2023 draft will be able to cause a lot of trouble to the opponent's defense.
Our forecast is that Wembanyam's total points are over 24.5, including overtime in 1.87
