FanDuel. This is a bet on Baylor Scheierman’s role tonight. The second year wing should be poised for significant minutes off the bench, as Boston will be without Payton Pritchard and Nikola Vucevic, and Jayson Tatum is likely still caped at around 30 minutes. Scheierman has cleared this line in 12 of his last 14 games, and in 14/17 with at least 24 minutes this season.

This should be a fun game Tuesday and a possible NBA Finals preview with Jayson Tatum now back for Boston. He has been limited to 27 minutes in his first two and that's not likely changing tonight. The C's are thinned out with Payton Pritchard and Nikola Vucevic both out. Vucevic's big body/six fouls would have been helpful against Victor Wembanyama tonight. The Spurs have won 15 of 16 and largely are trucking people. San Antonio is 21-0 when shooting at least 40.0% from beyond the arc this season. The only other such unbeaten team? Boston at 19-0. Pritchard and Vucevic are both pretty good from deep so they will be missed.
