An Assist in Betting Victor Wembanyama in Game 2 of the NBA's Western Conference Finals
Wembanyama to Pile up the Assists in Game 2: Bet on It
As we sit just a handful of hours before Game 2 of the Western Conference Final, our thoughts are dominated by Victor Wembanyama . The 22-year-old controlled every facet of the series opener in San Antonio’s 122-115 double overtime win over the two-time NBA MVP Shai Gilgeous-Alexander and the defending champion Oklahoma City Thunder. Just as Mark Daigneault and OKC are working feverishly to figure out a path to victory in Game 2 Wednesday night, we work to find an advantage and subsequently profit from Wemby’s other-worldly actions on the court in the Western Conference Finals and possibly the NBA Finals.
Let’s start with the obvious opportunity we all wish we had played, but few of us did. San Antonio was 66-1 to win the NBA Title before the season began. If you are holding that ticket, wow!
So many ways to hedge off that ticket at this point in the playoffs. For us mere mortals, those odds are no more. The value in that market has long dried up.
A bet that has cashed is the Spurs regular season win total which was set at 44 games. A rocking chair bet if ever there was one. But again, the real goal of this exercise is to find value still available for those wanting to take advantage of the wonder that is Wembanyama.
