Best Anthony Edwards Prop Bets on DraftKings Sportsbook
Anthony Edwards 38+ Points + Rebounds + Assists (-110)
After Sunday’s scuffle between the Timberwolves and Pistons, Naz Reid and Donte DiVincenzo have been suspended for one game. This is poor timing for Minnesota, as they are only a half game behind of the Warriors for the sixth seed in the Western Conference, which is a valuable spot, as the top six teams in each conference avoid the Play-In Tournament. While Reid and DiVincenzo come off the bench, they aren’t your normal reserves, as they both play big minutes and garner high usage rates. Their absences are going to force Minnesota’s starters to play larger roles than usual in this important tilt, especially Anthony Edwards.
The Timberwolves have played one game without both Reid and DiVincenzo this season and, in that contest, Edwards posted 33 points, seven rebounds and five assists vs. the Suns. Edwards also led the team with 39.5 minutes and a massive 36.9% usage rate.
Tonight, Edwards is facing a Nuggets defense that ranks 24th in defensive rating since the All-Star break. This will be the fourth time he has gone against Denver this season and, despite at least one of Reid or DiVincezno being available for each of the first three matchups, Edwards is averaging 40 PRA per game against the Nuggets. The All-Star recorded at least 38 PRA in two of these three games and Edwards is a sensational bet for 38+ PRA tonight.
