Anthony Edwards and the Minnesota Timberwolves face off with the Denver Nuggets tonight in a rematch of last season’s Western Conference Semifinals.

Here’s the top Edwards prop bets for tonight’s game ahead of the 10 p.m. EST tip-off.
Best Anthony Edwards prop bets on DraftKings Sportsbook
Edwards’ lines on DraftKings Sportsbook sit at 26.5 points, 5.5 rebounds, 5.5 assists, and 3.5 three-pointers. His PTS + REB + AST line is set at 37.5.
This matchup holds some appeal for Edwards’ betting market. The Nuggets rank 20th in defensive rating and fifth in pace around the league, so there should be plenty of opportunities on offense tonight. Aaron Gordon is doubtful to to suit up for Denver, so they’re down one of their best defenders, too.
Edwards’ scoring has been a bit of a mixed bag lately. He’s scored 25 or more points across four of his last eight appearances, but was held to 18 or fewer in the other four. On the season overall, he’s gone over tonight’s 26.5 line 30 times in 63 contests. However, the over hit in both previous matchups against the Nuggets. With the potential for a shootout in an uptempo spot, this feels like a chance for Edwards to put up another high-scoring performance. Thus, over 26.5 points holds some appeal at -110 odds.
Another line to check out is under 5.5 rebounds for the Timberwolves star, also at -110 odds. He’s gone under this line in four of his last five games, and the Nuggets rebound the ball at the league’s fifth-best rate. Edwards also went under this line in both matchups with Denver this season. While he’s a great athlete, the under is probably the smarter play here.
