Alex Caruso Over 12.5 Points & Rebounds (-115)

Risking 1.15u to win 1u

I considered this one for Game 2, but I was expecting a bump in playing time for the bigs. Isaiah Hartenstein and Chet Holmgren played a bit more in Game 2 but still didn't see their normal allotment of minutes. There are plenty of opportunities available for the wings given head coach Mark Daigneault's approach.

Caruso has been the big winner so far. After playing 27+ minutes in just 3 games heading into this round, he's hit that threshold in both games this series. He's averaging 20 points + rebounds. The smaller lineups have led to a joint rebounding effort, with several players chipping in on the glass. Caruso has grabbed 4.5 rebounds per game on 7.5 rebound chances. He has also done well making himself available on offense, whether for 3-pointers or for dump-offs in the dunker's spot.

This is a road game for the young Thunder. From a non-analytical perspective, that's favored Caruso in the postseason. He's been one of the few secondary options that hasn't been afraid of tough environments.
