Let’s dig into my top Anthony Edwards prop to consider from this contest.
Best Anthony Edwards Prop Bets on DraftKings Sportsbook
Anthony Edwards 33+ Points + Rebounds (-115)
Volume hasn’t really been an issue for Edwards so far this season. The former first-overall pick comes into Thursday’s tilt with the Bulls averaging a robust 37.1 minutes per game — the most of any Timberwolves player. Add in a team-high 30.6% usage rate, and it’s no wonder why Edwards is producing 27.3 points and 5.6 rebounds in his seven starts.
Still, the key to this prop is the matchup. While Chicago has actually been a league-average defense this season, allowing 112.8 opponent points per 100 possessions, the Bulls have been the fastest-paced team in the NBA in 2024-25 — by a massive margin. To wit, Chicago averages 106.2 possesses per 48 minutes. No other team in the league is above 105 possessions. Heck, only one other team is above 104 possessions.
This translates into the Bulls surrendering the seventh-most points per contest (119.4) and the third-most rebounds per contest (48.4). In an environment that’s perfect for stat-padding, I’d expect Edwards to finish with some huge numbers in his box score.
