Our best Timberwolves vs Spurs SGP for Game 1
SGP leg #1: Rudy Gobert Under 10.5 Rebounds (+102)
This is not a knock on the Minnesota Timberwolves or Rudy Gobert. This is a reality of facing Victor Wembanyama and the San Antonio Spurs. If Minnesota wants to get to the rim, it needs Wembanyama out of the paint.
When Gobert is on the court, Wembanyama can set up in the paint. So, quite frankly, Gobert’s minutes should fall in this series. Playing a five-out lineup will be the Timberwolves’ best approach to dragging Wembanyama out of the paint.
SGP leg #2: Rudy Gobert Under 8.5 Points (-110)
