The Timberwolves and Lakers will clash in Game 4 of their first-round series on Sunday afternoon. We list our top prop bets for the epic battle at Target Center
It’s Sunday afternoon in Minnesota. You know what that means? It’s Timberwolves time. And not just “hey, we made the playoffs” Wolves. No. This is real Timberwolves basketball. Like, “actual contender” Timberwolves basketball.
Today, our beloved Wolves get a chance to do what no Minnesota team has done, ever: stomp the Lakers into the hardwood and take a commanding 3–1 series lead. Target Center is going to sound like a Metallica concert inside a washing machine. The stakes have never been higher.
And if you’re a sicko like me (read: a normal sports fan), you’re also thinking: Hey, can I make this even MORE stressful by putting a little cash on it? Good news: FanDuel’s No Sweat Same Game Parlay is your ticket. You place a parlay. If it wins, you’re a genius. If it loses, you get bonus bets and pretend you knew it wouldn’t hit anyway. Details are below, but first—let’s set the board for Game 4.
Wolves Favored, But Undervalued?
The Wolves are coming in today as modest favorites — -3.5 points, -154 on the moneyline. That’s a little bit like pricing a Tesla at $18,000 because it might rain. Are the Lakers still dangerous with LeBron and Luka Doncic? Absolutely. But the Wolves have younger legs, more depth, and frankly, more fire right now.
The big story from Game 3 was Minnesota’s endurance. The Lakers looked like they were playing in cement shoes by the fourth quarter. You think two days is enough to fix that? Please. LeBron can ice-bath himself into a coma and he’s still waking up sore today.
Fatigue matters. Depth matters. Youth matters. Minnesota has all three. This is the moment to step on the throat, win Game 4, and send Lakers Nation into full “Skip Bayless meltdown mode” by Monday morning.
Player Props That Make Too Much Sense
Anthony Edwards 30+ Points, 5+ Threes, and Wolves Moneyline (+308)
- Ant closed Game 3 like a superhero landing.
- He hasn’t had his “I’m Him” game yet this series, and we’re due.
- If he drops 30+ points and hits five threes, you think we aren’t getting a Wolves W?
Jaden McDaniels 20+ Points (+420) — Best Bet of the Day
- McDaniels has been absolutely cooking in the Wolves’ two wins (30 and 25 points).
- He’s Minnesota’s secret weapon: too quick for forwards, too long for guards.
- If he hits 20+ again (which he’s done 2 of 3 games), you’re swimming in value.
- Add Wolves ML? You bump it to +539. Yes, please.
McDaniels 20+ Points + Wolves -3.5 Cover (+657)
- This is a high-variance play, but if the Wolves win, there’s a 90% chance Jaden’s fingerprints are all over it.
- Feels like the Vegas guys are still undervaluing how McDaniels’ offense tilts everything for the Wolves.
If You Like Combo Packs:
(Some Best Friend Parlays)
Ant Edwards 33.5+ Combined Points + Assists (-112)
- Ant’s going to be creating today, whether it’s scoring himself or bending the defense to set up Naz/Jaden/NAW.
- Over 33.5 feels like the floor, not the ceiling.
Jaden McDaniels 19.5+ Points + Rebounds (-114)
- Jaden’s aggression has been a killer for LA.
- If the Lakers actually contest his drives and threes today (which, TBD), he’s still crashing the boards hard.
Donte DiVincenzo 17.5+ Points/Rebounds/Assists (-108)
- Dante’s the ultimate “hey, it’s the third quarter and we need a random guy to have a moment” dude.
- He quietly filled up the stat sheet in Game 3 even without shooting particularly well.
Parlay Two of Those Together (Edwards + McDaniels) and You’re Getting +249.
Pretty solid if you want to keep your blood pressure semi-manageable.
Final Thought
Look, if you don’t want to bet today, that’s fine. You can just soak in the pure joy of a packed Target Center, a foaming-mad Wolves crowd, and the chance to see LeBron look around, realize no cavalry is coming, and hand the torch to King Ant.
But if you do want a little extra skin in the game?
There’s real value all over the board today, especially if you trust what your eyes have been telling you:
- The Wolves are deeper.
- They’re younger.
- They’re hungrier.
- And right now, they’re just flat-out better.
Take advantage before the market catches up.
And remember — if things somehow go sideways? It’s No Sweat.
