1u - Anthony Edwards o7.5 1Q Points (-112) CLICK HERE TO SEE WHICH SPORTSBOOK HAS THE BEST ODDS
Anthony Edwards has hit this bet in all four games of the series. Edwards is averaging 10.25 points per first quarter this series and is seeing major volume. With their backs against the wall once against for Game 5, I don’t see that changing.
DALLAS MAVERICKS VS. MINNESOTA TIMBERWOLVES GAME 5 Prediction
Minnesota will be at home and Ant should thrive with the home crowd behind him. He should see all 12 minutes of the first quarter so we just need about two points every three minutes. Ant is more than capable from deep so this has the upside of hitting in three shots.
Dallas could try to adapt and blitz him but even when doing that he has the speed and finesse in his game to make the right pass and get the ball later in the possession. No team has ever come back 0-3 in the NBA Playoffs but a guy with the mentality like Edwards would love to be the first. I expect him to come out energized tonight and light it up. Let's roll!
