Top Spurs vs. Thunder predictions

After studying Spurs vs. Thunder from every angle, Barner is leaning Under 216.5 total points. Game 1 produced 237 combined points, but that is heavily skewed because of the game going into double OT. With that scenario unlikely to play out again, Barner has looked at the first 48 minutes from Game 1 and is envisioning a tight, low-scoring matchup in Game 2.

"There were a combined 202 points scored in regulation in Game 1," Barner told SportsLine. "We already know how suffocating the Thunder's defense can be, but the Spurs are also up to the task on that end of the floor. The Thunder also don't shoot a ton of 3-pointers, which can be a problem for this series with Wembanyama lurking at the rim. Look for another low-scoring matchup."  See his Spurs vs. Thunder spread pick at SportsLine , and you can bet the Under in Thunder vs. Spurs at FanDuel here:
