The Minnesota Timberwolves faded late last night, partly due to the absence of Anthony Edwards. His possible return tonight should help their cause against the Philadelphia 76ers.
But my Timberwolves vs. 76ers predictions and these NBA picks recognize Minnesota already has a newfound scorer to either complement Edwards or pick up the slack on Friday, April 3.
Timberwolves vs 76ers prediction
Timberwolves vs 76ers best bet: Ayo Dosunmu Over 15.5 Points (+100)
A new rule of thumb in your NBA gambling: If Ayo Dosunmu is starting for the Minnesota Timberwolves, gladly bet any points prop to the Over as long as it is below 17 points. This could be a very important rule of thumb to keep in mind next season.
Dosunmu has now started his last six games with the Timberwolves, first in place of Anthony Edwards and now in place of Jaden McDaniels. Dosunmu has scored at least 17 points in each of those six games, averaging 18.8 points.
His particular brand of basketball makes his points prop seemingly game-state safe. Take last night, when Minnesota was trailing by double digits late at Detroit. Dosunmu kept pushing the ball up court, clearing this prop easily with 19 points but only because of those final minutes.
Transition travels, so to speak, as it will against the Philadelphia 76ers tonight.
