Our Timberwolves vs. Pelicans predictions expect a big outing from Anthony Edwards tonight.
The Timberwolves' success runs through the play of Anthony Edwards, and his play tonight will be just what his team needs.Photo By - Imagn Images. Minnesota Timberwolves guard Anthony Edwards celebrates his basket against the San Antonio Spurs during the second half at Target Center.
In past years, the Minnesota Timberwolves were ripe for a letdown in a mismatch like this, favored by double digits on the road. But the Timberwolves are 12-3 outright this season when favored by multiple buckets, so the New Orleans Pelicans should be in trouble tonight.He always acknowledged this flaw, but his approach to fixing it always fell short of the court. This preseason, Edwards said his goal was to set a new career high in scoring in each of these games that should be blowouts. He used to see these games as opportunities to get his teammates buckets, but that attitude would approach ambivalence, turning expected routs into existential disasters. Edwards has cleared this prop in three of his five games this season with Minnesota favored by more than three buckets, the two exceptions coming in the middle of a shooting slump in mid-November. Since then, Edwards has scored at least 31 points in each of his last five games, two of them coming against diminished opponents like the Pelicans. Edwards suffered through a mild shooting slump before his recent surge. Since snapping that slump, though, Edwards has cashed every leg of this same-game parlay in three straight games, falling short in the two just before that by only one assist.If you include the Over, this exact same-game parlay has cashed in each of Minnesota’s last two games, moments when the Timberwolves were favored against shorthanded opponents, just as they are tonight.Three of New Orleans’s last four games have gone Over their totals, as have Minnesota’s last two games.

Douglas Farmer spends his days thinking about college football and his nights thinking about the NBA. His betting habits and coverage follow that same pattern. He covered Notre Dame football for various outlets from 2008 to 2024, most notably spending eight seasons as NBC Sports’ beat writer on the Irish. That was also when his gambling focus took off. Knowing there were veteran beat writers with three decades more experience than he had, Douglas found his niche by best recognizing Notre Dame’s standing in each year’s national landscape, a complex tapestry most easily understood and remembered via betting odds. In 2021, that interest created a freelance opportunity with Covers, a role that eventually led to Douglas joining the company full-time in 2023. In the fall, Douglas will place five or six dozen bets each week, a disproportionate amount via BetRivers because the operator tends to have lines slightly different than the rest of the market. The same can be said of Circa Sports’ futures markets. While Douglas is an avid NBA fan and covers the league throughout the year, the vast majority of his bets are on college football, because that is the biggest key to sports betting: Know what you do not know.Best NBA Player Props Today for December 2: Fox TrotSuns vs Lakers Prediction, Picks & Best Bets for Tonight’s NBA GameIf you choose to make use of any information on this website including online sports betting services from any websites that may be featured on this website, we strongly recommend that you carefully check your local laws before doing so.It is your sole responsibility to understand your local laws and observe them strictly.Covers does not provide any advice or guidance as to the legality of online sports betting or other online gambling activities within your jurisdiction and you are responsible for complying with laws that are applicable to you in your relevant locality.Covers disclaims all liability associated with your use of this website and use of any information contained on it.As a condition of using this website, you agree to hold the owner of this website harmless from any claims arising from your use of any services on any third party website that may be featured by Covers.
