Thunder vs Wizards Pick

It’s well known OKC has one of the best young cores in the Association and that’s been on full display in Vegas. Holmgren is balling out with 20.5 PPG and 9.5 RPG so far while rookie Cason Wallace is also making his presence felt. The Thunder just beat up the Indiana Pacers on Wednesday behind a 25-piece from Chet.

The Wizards are 1-2 in the Summer League and have been absolutely awful at shooting the basketball, draining a mere 25% of their three-pointers. Washington also lost last time out, falling to the Victor Wembanyama-less Spurs. Xavier Cooks scored 16 points.

OKC has looked good and they’ve covered in both of their wins. I like them here.

Pick: Thunder -3.5 (-110)

Mavericks vs Pacers Pick

The Mavs sit at 2-1 in Vegas but they just shut down promising second-year guard Jaden Hardy for the rest of the tournament, which certainly changes things for Jared Dudley’s squad. He was averaging 23 PPG. Hardy just scored 21 in an OT victory over the Warriors on Wednesday, too.

The Pacers have been led by Bennedict Mathurin, one of the best young players in the Association who is getting in some more reps before Year 2 while Andrew Nembhard also played the first two games. Both are being shut down now though, which means Jarace Walker is one of the main options. The first-round pick showed out Wednesday in a loss to OKC, registering 20 points and grabbing nine boards.

Dallas has won two straight. I think they’ll ride the momentum.

Pick: Mavericks moneyline (+125)

Jazz vs Suns Pick

Utah is shining in Vegas with a perfect 3-0 record, beating the Timberwolves, Nuggets, and Clippers. Keyonte George has been the standout performer, but he just suffered an ankle sprain Wednesday and is likely out for the rest of the tournament. Ochai Agbaji and Luka Samanic both scored 14 points in a win over the Nuggets.

The Suns are 1-2 and just lost to the New Orleans Pelicans on Tuesday. They scored only 73 points and to be honest, don’t have a ton of talent that is even going to play at the NBA level considering how stacked Phoenix’s roster is.

The Jazz are hot. They will cover.

Pick: Jazz -5 (-110)
