With his ability to create his shot and shoot off the dribble, he can make at least three 3-pointers in this game.
Jalen Brunson Over 0.5 Steals
Brunson is averaging 0.9 steals per game this season, and he is in a good matchup to exceed his steal total of 0.5 against the Timberwolves. Minnesota has been turnover-prone this season, and Brunson can easily take advantage of that.
