Anthony Edwards has been the Timberwolves’ consistent offensive engine this season, averaging 27.8 points, 5.2 rebounds, and 3.8 assists in 12 games.
Coming off a tough loss to the Trail Blazers, Edwards will look to regain his rhythm against a Kings squad he lit up for 32 points earlier this season.
Here are the best Edwards prop bets on DraftKings Sportsbook for Friday’s game:
Best Anthony Edwards Prop Bets
Points 27.5 (Over -105 / Under -125): Edwards has scored 28 or more points in five games this season, including a 32-point performance against Sacramento in their previous matchup. While he’s coming off a cold shooting night (0-for-9 from three), the Over offers value, given his scoring track record and the Kings’ defensive struggles.
Rebounds 5.5 (Over -120 / Under -110): Edwards has recorded at least six rebounds in six of 12 games this season, with five games at five boards or fewer. Against Sacramento’s physical frontcourt, the Over has potential if Edwards remains active on the glass, but the Under is worth consideration if you anticipate Minnesota’s bigs will control the boards.
Assists 4.5 (Over -130 / Under +100): Edwards has averaged 4.8 assists in his last five games and dished out four assists against the Kings earlier this season. With the Over slightly favored, bettors should weigh Edwards’ playmaking role against Minnesota’s tendency to rely on other play making options like Mike Conley and Julius Randle.
Threes 3.5 (Over -115 / Under -115): Edwards averages 4.8 made threes per game this season and has hit at least four in 10 of his 12 outings. Despite an off night in Portland, his shooting volume and accuracy make the Over an appealing option against Sacramento’s perimeter defense.
Points + Rebounds + Assists 38.5 (Over -110 / Under -120): With Edwards averaging 36.8 combined points, rebounds, and assists this season, this line puts him within striking distance of the Over. If you anticipate a bounce-back game from Edwards, the Over is a great choice. For a more balanced team performance, the Under holds value.
Double-Double (+650): Edwards has yet to record a double-double this season, but at +650 odds, this prop could be a high-risk, high-reward play for those expecting him to record his first of 2024-25 in Sacramento.
