Josh Giddey was setting up teammates in Chicago’s overtime win over Atlanta, and he hit three threes of his own. If you like the Bulls against Minnesota, it’s worth asking whether he’ll get room to do both again.
Giddey’s points fit if you expect him to get his own shots alongside Norman Powell. Ayo Dosunmu’s assists under gives you a different angle on a Bulls win if you think LaMelo Ball will handle most of Minnesota’s playmaking.

Josh Giddey to score 15 points
Giddey got to 15 on 10 shots against Atlanta. Two nights earlier against San Antonio he had seven assists and scored nine on nine shots. Both are examples of him running the offense, with the Atlanta three-point makes doing much of the work for this prop. If Minnesota can keep him passing out of drives and let Powell take most of the shots, Giddey can help Chicago and still fall short.
The winning-game record mostly comes from last season. He’s reached this line in one of two Chicago wins and two of 11 appearances this season. Friday’s 39 minutes came with overtime, and Saturday is the second night of a back-to-back. I’d want to see a normal workload and room for Giddey to shoot before taking the plus price.
Ayo Dosunmu under 4.5 assists
Dosunmu scored 18 points against Dallas on Thursday and recorded one assist while LaMelo Ball had nine. If Ball handles most of the passing again, Dosunmu can score efficiently and stay under five assists. Chicago would still need to limit the chances he creates when he gets the ball. He had six assists against Houston earlier this month with Ball starting alongside him.
The under was more common in Minnesota losses than across all his appearances there. The one miss in those 12 losses was an eight-assist night against Portland last March. If you expect Dosunmu to take on more of the playmaking, the price makes it easy to pass.

Which prop fits a Chicago win?
Giddey’s points are worth a look if you expect him to shoot as well as initiate the offense. Dosunmu’s assists under works better if you expect Ball to do most of the creating and Chicago to make the other guards finish possessions themselves.
