@RyanPropz Minnesota Timberwolves vs. Portland Trail Blazers Player Prop Pick - 1/25

Despite the rare solid defense performance against the Raptors, I am going back to a matchup vs the Trail Blazers. I am gonna look to KAT to have a big night vs Portland. 

The Twolves center is one of the most talented bigs in the league and catches a great matchup tonight. Portland has been “better” vs the Center position lately, but when you dig deeper, you see why. In the last 10 games, the Centers they've faced are as followed: Robert Williams, DeWayne Dedmon, Day’Ron Sharpe, Alex Len, Jarrett Allen, Omer Yurtseven, Clint Capela, Rudy Gobert, Moses Brown, and Jonas Valanciunas. While there are some good Centers listed, none of them have anywhere near the offensive upside we see from KAT. Despite facing that list, Portland has still managed to give up the 6th most points per game to the Center position over the last 30 days. Over the course of the entire season, they have allowed the 3rd most PPG to C. 

As for KAT’s recent trends, he has hit this in 5 of his last 10 games, and 6 of his last 10 road games. He is 21/39 to the over. Considering Portland is 26th in points allowed per game, and worst in the league in FG% and 3PT% allowed, I am anticipating KAT to go over for the 22nd time.
