Stephen Curry Over 5.5 Rebounds (-113)

Someone besides Kevon Looney has to get some rebounds for the Golden State Warriors, and I think Stephen Curry will continue to be that someone.

Curry has eight and six rebounds over his last two games, and he's done that despite Looney vacuuming up an astounding 44 total boards over the two contests. Looney can't keep up that kind of rebounding pace over the long haul, which should result in more rebounding chances for other Warriors.

The matchup helps, too. Over the final 30 games of the regular season, the Los Angeles Lakers gave up the second-most boards per night to point guards (7.1). Curry has played LA three times this season, going for at least six rebounds in two of the three games.

We project Curry for 6.5 rebounds in tonight's Game 2.

Andrew Wiggins Over 1.5 Made Threes (-130)

I targeted this over at -150 juice in Game 1, and it didn't hit as Curry, Klay Thompson and Jordan Poole did the heavy lifting from three for the Dubs, drilling six treys apiece.

But I liked the process for that bet and am going back to the well for Game 2.

Andrew Wiggins got up five three-point attempts in Game 1, which is a positive, and he averaged 6.1 three-point tries per night in the regular season.

The Lakers surrendered the ninth-most made threes per game to small forwards in the regular season, and Wiggins hit multiple threes -- six in all -- over his two regular-season meetings with LA.

We project Wiggins to go 2.5 of 6.4 today from three. I love this at -130.
