Karl-Anthony Towns Over 3.5 Assists (+125) - BetMGM (Bet $100 to win $125)
We're at DraftKings for this one because the others are not as good. FanDuel has 3.5 (+102) which is cool since it's plus money but it damn sure isn't +125. DraftKings is pretty close at 3.5 (+120) but still not as good. We need every penny here people. With that being said, if you have to play elsewhere, just get the plus money. You have to do what you have to do here people.
I'm not going to go on and on here people. This isn't about the matchup so it doesn't matter that the Oklahoma City Thunder were fourth-worst in the NBA in opponent assist per field goal made metric. That doesn't matter. It also doesn't matter that the Timberwolves are double-digit favorites tonight. I still think KAT can get home here if I am right about his new role with Rudy Gobert in town.
The thing is, Karl-Anthony Towns is a pretty smooth big guy. He can dish the rock. Now that Gobert is on the Timberwolves roster, I think KAT will handle the ball more. Not like a true point guard or anything, just more than he used to be. And he used to turn in big assist games too. In his only two preseason starts this season, he dished out no fewer than six dimes in either game. I think he ends with a number in that same neighborhood tonight. Feels right.
