🧪 SAL's Synthesis
While there's a slight positive EV on Kuzma's double-double at +1800, the anti agent's evidence carries stronger weight in the game context. Kuzma's recent averages of only 13.4 points and 4.2 rebounds, combined with the solid defensive frontcourt of the Bucks limiting his opportunities, create a narrative that likely leads to him failing to achieve the necessary stats. Thus, the Net EV of 0.02, despite being slightly positive, doesn't justify wagering on this bet due to the unfavorable factors at play.

Evidence
- →STATS: Kuzma's recent averages show he is producing only 13.4 points and 4.2 rebounds over his last five games, which is far from the double-double threshold.

- →NARRATIVE: The game's total is set low at 218.5, indicating a potential struggle for offensive production, which would be disadvantageous for Kuzma achieving a double-double.
