The Timberwolves are hosting the Thunder on Thursday. On DraftKings Sportsbook, Oklahoma City is favored by 7.5 points and this game presents a total of 222 points.

Below, I have featured my favorite Anthony Edwards prop bet to consider from this contest.

Best Anthony Edwards Prop Bets on DraftKings Sportsbook

Anthony Edwards U 39.5 Points + Rebounds + Assists (-115)

While Edwards has had some brilliant showings since the Timberwolves lost Julius Randle (groin), this 39.5 PRA is too high for Edwards against the Thunder. Oklahoma City leads the league in defensive rating this season, and it will have Chet Holmgren back in the lineup tonight after resting him Wednesday.

Holmgren is a terrific defender and when he has been on the floor this season, the Thunder have boasted an absurd 99.6 defensive rating. In the 12 games Holmgren has played this season, Oklahoma City has held its opponent to less than 100 points five times.

Edwards is handling a huge 35.9 percent usage rate with Randle off the floor this season, but Edwards fell short of 39.5 PRA with Randle out last night. In 37 minutes, Edwards finished with 28 points, seven rebounds and four assists vs. the Bucks, who were without Giannis Antetokounmpo (calf).

Edwards should have major problems against a full strength Thunder team tonight, and they should limit him to less than 39.5 PRA.
