Jokić is projected for 35 minutes with a points OVER edge of 8%, supported by his season average of 27.6 and last five average of 28.2. The matchup against the Thunder, who allow a high number of opponent three-pointers, may not significantly impact his scoring, but his rebounds and assists are slightly below season averages in recent head-to-head games.

ProjectedPTS: 18.4-25-31.6REB: 10.3-13.3-16.3AST: 8.6-11-13.4

Murray is projected for 33 minutes with high volatility in assists and points. His season average of 6.2 assists and head-to-head low of 4.0 suggest an UNDER on assists, while his points average of 21.2 and recent performance indicate an UNDER on points, influenced by the competitive game script and potential blowout risk.

ProjectedPTS: 16.3-22.9-29.5REB: 1.5-4.5-7.5AST: 4.6-7-9.4

Gordon is projected for 26 minutes with a rebounds UNDER, based on his season average of 4.3 and head-to-head average of 3.5. The low blowout risk and moderate pace may limit his rebounding opportunities, aligning with the UNDER pick.
