The Indiana Pacers and San Antonio Spurs face off on Sunday night, and the Spurs are coming off a massive win over the Oklahoma City Thunder, where Victor Wembanyama may have clinched the Rookie of the Year award.
Now the real question is: how can we find value in Wemby in the aftermarket? It’s tough to bet on the rookie sensation since he’s filling up the stat sheet and seen his props skyrocket, but there’s one play for him that I love tonight.

Let’s break down the main props of this battle:
Victor Wembanyama MORE THAN 3.5 blocks
I’m looking at Wemby’s defense in this game, because he’s been incredible protecting the rim lately, blocking four or more shots in five straight games and six of his last seven games.
The Spurs big man is averaging an NBA-best 3.3 blocks per game this season, and he now faces an Indiana team that is allowing opponents to block 5.6 shots per game – good for 23rd place in the NBA.
In his first game against the Pacers, Wembanyama had two blocks in just 21 minutes in a 41-point loss. If this match is close, I think he will clear this prop.
Devin Vassell OVER 31.5 points, rebounds and assists
PRA mainstay Devin Vassell usually relies heavily on his scoring, but he has been filling up the stat sheet as of late, averaging 4.3 rebounds and 4.9 assists per game in the month of February.
Vassell cleared the prop in seven of his 12 games that month, and he should have plenty of chances to rack up stats against an Indiana team that is No. 2 in the league in pace and No. 26 on a defensive note.
The former lottery pick has also scored 20 or more points in eight of his last 12 games, so there’s a chance he lands us this prop for that alone.
