Luka Doncic Total Points Scored Prop Bet vs. Timberwolves - Christmas Day Game

Doncic led Dallas with 27 points (10-of-19 FGs, 6-of-8 FTs), seven rebounds, seven assists, one steal and one triple in a 132-108 win over the Trail Blazers on Monday.

From NBC Sports:

Luka missed their last two games with a heel contusion in his left foot, but he was back in the lineup for this blowout win. Like everyone else in this game, he didn’t play his full role because of the lopsided score, but Doncic was still able to stuff the stat sheet in just under 30 minutes of play. He should be able to suit up again on Christmas Day against Minnesota, but don’t be surprised if he is back on the injury report with this heel contusion. He’ll continue to be one of the best players in the league when he’s on the floor, but the lack of availability has been an issue over the past month.

Following their win against Portland, the Mavs star provided an update on the left heel contusion that had sidelined him for the past two games.

“It’s fine… After the first quarter it felt better, just getting warm,” Doncic told reporters after the game. “But it’s fine.”

The Mavericks are 13-8 against Western Conference opponents. Dallas is 7-3 when it wins the turnover battle and averages 13.6 turnovers per game.

The Timberwolves are 11-9 in Western Conference play. Minnesota is fifth in the league averaging 14.9 made 3-pointers per game while shooting 37.0% from downtown. Anthony Edwards leads the team averaging 4.1 makes while shooting 41.4% from 3-point range.

The 118.8 points per game the Mavericks score are 11.6 more points than the Timberwolves give up (107.2). The Timberwolves are shooting 45.7% from the field, 0.4% higher than the 45.3% the Mavericks' opponents have shot this season.
