Best Timberwolves-Clippers NBA Player Prop | Jaden McDaniels
Jaden McDaniels Prop O/U 1.5 3-Pointers
The Minnesota Timberwolves haven’t found the success with star center Rudy Gobert they had hoped for. While some of Minnesota’s struggles fall on the absence of Karl-Anthony Towns, the Wolves shipped off far too many role players to acquire Gobert, and their lack of depth has limited them at times. However, wing Jaden McDaniels remained in town after the deal, and he should cash this prop tonight.
McDaniels is an effective perimeter shooter. He has hit at least two 3-pointers in 25 of his 60 appearances (41.7%). He just sunk a pair of them against the Golden State Warriors on Sunday and has cashed the over in five of his last six starts. McDaniels is the primary corner shooter in Minnesota’s starting lineup and averages 0.7 makes on a team-high 1.8 attempts from that zone.
This prop mostly hinges on the matchup. The Los Angeles Clippers have struggled to defend the corner and big wings lately. Through the last 15 games, the Clippers have allowed the second-most corner 3’s per game (5) on the highest shooting percentage (53.8%). They have also allowed the fifth-most above-the-breaks 3’s per game (10.3). This corresponds with them allowing the most 3-pointers per game to power forwards (3.2) through that stretch. McDaniels shot 3-for-6 against them back in January.
The total for this NBA player prop (1.5) is fair, but the juice should sit closer to even. DraftKings Sportsbook has the over priced at +115. Pinnacle, a sharp sportsbook, has the over priced at +114. However, bettors can still buy the over at +122 via FanDuel Sportsbook. Readers who are yet to register at FanDuel can score a no-sweat first bet worth up to $1,000.
