The Golden State Warriors are looking for answers as they visit the Minnesota Timberwolves on Saturday night, fresh off a 51-point loss to the Memphis Grizzlies.
Stephen Curry and his teammates aim to snap a three-game skid, but with Draymond Green questionable due to left ankle soreness, the Warriors could find themselves short-handed in a pivotal matchup.
Here’s a featured Curry prop bet on DraftKings Sportsbook to consider for Saturday’s game against Minnesota.
Best Stephen Curry Prop Bets on DraftKings Sportsbook
Stephen Curry Over 29.5 Points + Assists (-105)
Curry’s off night against Memphis — where he was held to two points on 0-for-7 shooting — was an anomaly, not a trend. The two-time MVP rarely strings together poor performances, and history suggests a bounce-back game is likely.
“First time for everything, right?” Curry told reporters. “I never thought that would be a situation or a result of the game. From the very jump, they kind of punched us in the mouth. We didn’t have an answer. … That was kind of embarrassing.”
Curry is averaging 22.0 points and 6.4 assists this season, but he has elevated his play against the Timberwolves, averaging 34.5 points in two previous matchups. With Green’s status uncertain, Golden State may need Curry to take on an even more significant offensive burden as a scorer and facilitator.
Minnesota’s defense has been one of the best in the league, but its reliance on Rudy Gobert’s drop coverage can leave openings for Curry to exploit. If Green sits, the Warriors’ offense will flow even more heavily through Curry, increasing his shot attempts and playmaking opportunities.
Curry has consistently delivered in big moments following underwhelming performances. With the Warriors needing a spark and potentially missing Green’s playmaking, the over on Curry’s combined points and assists stands out as a strong play.
