The Minnesota Timberwolves are in Memphis to face the Grizzlies at 9:30 p.m. ET. This is their third matchup this season, and Memphis has won both of them. The Timberwolves are 14-4 in their previous 18 games. After losing seven of eight games, the Grizzlies are on a three-game winning streak.
Timberwolves superstar Anthony Edwards is averaging 27.4 points, 5.7 rebounds, and 4.6 assists per game this season. Here is my best player prop for Edwards against the Grizzlies for tonight’s game.
Anthony Edwards over 3.5 three-pointers (-140)
With Edwards’s point total at 28.5 tonight, let’s look at a different area of his game. Edwards is having the best shooting season of his career with three-pointers. He is attempting 10.2 threes per contest, hitting them at a 39.4 percent rate, nearly four percent better than last season. You can get Edwards to make more than 3.5 three-pointers against the Grizzlies at -140 on DraftKings Sportsbook.
Edwards has surpassed this mark in 47 of the 76 games he has played this season. The Grizzlies allow their opponents to shoot 36.1 percent on three-pointers, the 10th-worst in the NBA. Edwards has hit this total in five of his previous six games. Yes, he only made two three-pointers in his last game, but he has shown the ability to bounce back from a poor shooting performance in the past.
Edwards has attempted 10-plus three-pointers in 10 of his last 11 games. If Edwards continues to be a willing shooter, he will have a great chance to finish with more than 3.5 threes. In the last three games in which Edwards has had nine or more three-point attempts against the Grizzlies, he has finished with four-plus threes.
