The Timberwolves and Mavericks square off Tuesday night for a rematch of last season’s Western Conference Finals. On DraftKings Sportsbook, Minnesota is a five-point favorite for this game and this contest’s total is set at 221.5 points. Below, I have featured my favorite Edwards player props to bet from this matchup.
Best Anthony Edwards Prop Bets on DraftKings Sportsbook
Anthony Edwards O 3.5 made three-pointers (-105)
Edwards has made a clear effort to shoot more three-pointers this season. After averaging only 6.7 three-point attempts per game last season, the superstar is averaging a whopping 13.7 attempts from beyond the arc this season, which is the highest average in the NBA by a solid gap. Ranking second is Tyrese Maxey with 12.7 per game.
The Timberwolves as a whole have been very active from three-point land this season, ranking fifth in the league in three-point attempts after ranking 23rd in the category a year ago. This is an obvious attempt to model their game after the Celtics, who convincingly won the NBA championship last season while leading the NBA in three-pointers made and attempted by a mile.
With Edwards shooting a league-high 13.7 threes per game this season, the wing has knocked down five threes in each of his three starts. Edwards is shooting a career-best 38% on three-pointers and he is facing a Mavericks team Tuesday that could be sluggish on the defensive end. Dallas defeated the Jazz in a close eight-point tilt Monday and quickly had to travel to Minnesota afterward for Tuesday’s matchup with the Timberwolves. On DraftKings Sportsbook, Minnesota’s implied team total is up to a high 113.5 points.
This 3.5-three-pointer line is far too low for the long-range shooting volume Edwards is seeing this season and he needs to be backed to go over this line Tuesday.
