All 3 home teams took care of business last night, with the Hawks and Timberwolves taking a 2-1 series lead, and the Raptors getting their first win of the series. Looking ahead to Friday night, injuries are a huge question mark in multiple games. Joel Embiid is likely out, but is listed as doubtful. Austin Reaves and Victor Wembanyama are questionable, but unlikely to play.

Odds available at Caesars Sportsbook at time of publishing
It’s a must-win for the Rockets after losing the first 2 games of the series as favorites against the Lakers, who are playing without Luka Doncic and Austin Reaves. The core of Amen Thompson, Kevin Durant, Jabari Smith Jr. and Alperen Sengun will all play upwards of 35 minutes, with Reed Sheppard likely getting an uptick of minutes. We’re targeting Sengun, who is averaging 19 rebounding chances and 12 assist opportunities through the first 2 games.
