Anthony Edwards Best Prop Bets for Timberwolves vs. Warriors Game 2

The Warriors managed to defeat the Timberwolves in Game 1 despite losing Stephen Curry after just 13 minutes. They’ll be without their star guard again in Game 2 as he’s dealing with a hamstring strain.

It gives the Timberwolves a serious advantage in this matchup as they aim to even the series at 1-1. Minnesota is a heavy favorite because of this.

The Timberwolves are 10.5-point favorites at home, and the game total is set at 201 points on DraftKings Sportsbook.

Here are my favorite Anthony Edwards prop bets for Timberwolves vs. Warriors Game 2.

Best Anthony Edwards Prop Bets on DraftKings Sportsbook

Anthony Edwards Under 27.5 Points (-110)

The Timberwolves lost Game 1 in part due to Edwards’ lack of efficiency. The star scored 23 points on 9-of-22 shooting and made just one three-pointer. He led the NBA in made three-pointers this season, but he’s struggled over the past two games, draining just 1-of-16.

While one of those games was against the Lakers, it did continue against the Warriors. Golden State’s defense stifled Minnesota’s star in Game 1.

Without Curry in the lineup, the Timberwolves are heavy favorites at home. Golden State’s offense takes a major blow, but its defense actually improves. The two-time MVP isn’t a complete liability on defense, but there are better defenders in the rotation.

When Curry is on the floor, opponents have an offensive rating of 115.2. That decreases to 107.4 when he’s off the floor. There will be more solid defenders on the floor tonight with Curry out, which could hinder Edwards’ game again.

Across six playoff games in 2025, Edwards has scored more than 27.5 points just twice. It’s more likely he adds another under to his resume against a strong Warriors defense.

There’s also a question whether Edwards plays at least 40 minutes. He’s topped 40 in five of the six playoff games, but he could see limited time if Game 2 is a blowout.
