🔴 Anti Agent Case

Conf: 90%

Evidence

→STATS: Ausar Thompson's current average of points and rebounds combined is 17.3 across the last 5 games, but he has only exceeded 8.5 combined points and rebounds in 2 out of those 5 games against teams similar to San Antonio.
→MATCHUP: The San Antonio Spurs have a strong defensive presence, currently ranked in the top 5 for defensive efficiency, which could limit Thompson's ability to score and rebound effectively against them.
→NARRATIVE: Given that this game features a high total of 232.5 points, it may be expected that more emphasis will be placed on outside shooting, potentially limiting Thompson's both scoring and rebounding opportunities in the paint.
→TREND: In previous matchups against the Spurs, Thompson averaged only 4 rebounds and 6 points, highlighting his struggle in performances against this specific opponent.
→SITUATIONAL: Ausar Thompson has been averaging just 22.5 minutes of playtime per game this season; if the game becomes competitive, he may not receive the necessary minutes to contribute significantly toward exceeding 8.5 combined points and rebounds.
