The top-seeded Spurs host a shorthanded Blazers team missing Damian Lillard and Jerami Grant, creating a high blowout risk. San Antonio has its own injury concerns with Devin Vassell and Stephon Castle questionable, but their elite defense and depth should control the game. Portland's offense will rely heavily on Anfernee Simons as primary creator, facing a tough SAS defense.

Scoot Henderson — Points OVER 15.5Leg 2
De'Aaron Fox — Points UNDER 25.5Leg 3
These legs are positively correlated: Wembanyama's rebounds benefit from POR's weak frontcourt, Henderson's points rise due to POR's depleted offense, and Fox's points under due to blowout. All three have strong confidence and align with game script.
Injury & Lineup Notes
POR: Damian Lillard (Out) and Jerami Grant (Out) are key absences, thrusting Anfernee Simons and Shaedon Sharpe into larger roles but facing tough defense. SAS: Devin Vassell (Questionable) and Stephon Castle (Questionable) could miss, giving Carter Bryant increased minutes. Luke Kornet (Out) removes a backup center, boosting Wembanyama's rebounding.
