Timberwolves vs. Spurs: Over 218.5 total points (-110)

The Spurs and Timberwolves both have top-10 scoring offenses in the NBA, and that has shown itself especially in recent games of their postseason series. The Over has hit in each of the last three Spurs vs. Timberwolves contests entering Tuesday's Game 5, with those three games averaging 224.7 points per contest. After playing no more than 25 minutes in each of the first two games of the series, Timberwolves superstar Anthony Edwards has played at least 40 minutes in back-to-back contests, averaging 34 ppg in those games, as the Timberwolves have lifted any minutes restrictions from his knee injury suffered in the opening round. A healthy and productive Edwards certainly helps the Over's likelihood of hitting. The Spurs have the No. 4 scoring offense (119.1 points per game) with the Timberwolves eighth (117.1 ppg), and the model projects the Over to hit in 55% of simulations. Back the Over by claiming the latest BetMGM promo code CBSSPORTS here:

Paul Skenes, Pirates, Under 7.5 total strikeouts (-127)

Skenes is becoming one of the faces of MLB, and with that comes a market of plenty of baseball fans wanting to bet his Overs. However, the model doesn't view that as a wise play, especially tonight with a higher strikeout total for MLB prop betting. Skenes has gone Over 7.5 strikeouts only once in eight starts this season. The Pirates face the Rockies, who certainly don't have an elite offense, but Skenes has only reached the seventh inning in two starts this season. Skenes averaged 6.8 strikeouts per game last year in his Cy Young season, and although he has a dominant 0.71 WHIP this year, Skenes is averaging only 5.8 strikeouts per game. The model projects Skenes for six strikeouts on Tuesday. Play Skenes' Under by claiming the latest BetMGM bonus code CBSSPORTS here:

Tigers vs. Mets: Over 7.5 total runs (-120)

Neither the Tigers nor Mets have played to their preseason expectations to this point in the season, and Detroit's Tuesday starting pitcher has certainly played a role in his team's failures. The Tigers are scheduled to start Jack Flaherty, who has a 5.56 ERA in eight starts this season, including allowing at least four runs in three straight starts. Three of his last four starts have resulted in at least eight total runs scored in the contest. The Mets are promoting their No. 2 prospect, A.J. Ewing, in hopes of sparking some offensive success as they return home. The model projects the Over to hit in 67.4% of simulations. Back the Over by claiming the latest BetMGM promo code CBSSPORTS here:
