Bogdan Bogdanovic Under 19.5 points On top of taking the Over on RJ’s scoring prop, I’m once again backing Canada’s defense to lock down the opposing team’s best player and calling for a Serbia cover at +5.5.

Spain gave Canada real issues with the same ability, and Serbia combines that with youth, size, and shooting on the wing. : Covers may receive advertising commissions for visits to a sportsbook or betting siteFriday’s semifinal tilt between Serbia and Canada is expected to be competitive, with Canada opening as 4.5-point favorites.
They’re the only team to rival Spain in terms of ball movement, ranking second behind them in assists per game and with far fewer turnovers. Their 2.8 assist-to-turnover ratio leads the field by a mile. Canada’s ability to switch and defend on a string will be crucial to defending them. Still, Canada has elite defensive personnel and the best player in the tournament in Shai Gilgeous-Alexander. They’re rightly the favorites here, but I believe this will be a hotly-contested game.
