It’s win or stay home for the Minnesota Timberwolves, who need a win at home in Game 6 against the San Antonio Spurs to push their Round 2 series to a winner-take-all Game 7.
Game 6 goes Friday night from the Target Center in Minneapolis, where the visiting Spurs are 5-point favorites in the NBA odds.
A knee injury has sapped the explosiveness of Anthony Edwards, and already without Donte DiVincenzo, it’s a lot to ask of Ant Man to keep up his torrid scoring at home.
That’s one of my key player props for Game 6. Read below for a list of player props from both of these NBA starting lineups, and my best bets.

Spurs vs Timberwolves Prop Pick #1: Anthony Edwards Points
Pick 1: Edwards Under 26.5 Points (-110 at bet365)
The Spurs have built a fortress on the defensive end, boasting a stifling 99.7 defensive rating. They hold opponents to just 40.9% shooting from the floor, making scoring against them in half-court sets a massive chore.
It would be tough to score even with a fully healthy Edwards, but he’s definitely not 100% and he’s averaging just 21.3 points across nine total postseason games. Against San Antonio, Edwards is averaging a modest 23.6 points per game, powered by two electric efforts at home.
Anthony Edwards Home Stats in Round 2
Even with those two games, Edwards is converting just 36% of his three-point attempts in home games this postseason. This sub-40% success rate from downtown has resulted in a quiet average of only 22.5 points per game at the Target Center during the playoffs. San Antonio should be able to slow him down in the closeout game.
SA Spurs vs MIN Timberwolves Prop Pick #2: Rudy Gobert Rebounds
Pick 2: Gobert Over 8.5 rebounds (-120 at bet365)
If there is a crack in San Antonio’s defensive armor, it lies in closing out possessions. They give up 12.4 opponent offensive rebounds per game, a glaring vulnerability. Because of this, my second play is Rudy Gobert over 10.5 rebounds.
A relentless interior presence like Gobert has a prime opportunity to pad his rebounding numbers and cash this ticket.
Gobert has recorded a double-double in three of his five home games this postseason. At home, he is averaging 12.0 rebounds per game in the playoffs. With San Antonio surrendering 13.2 opponent offensive rebounds per game away from home, Gobert is perfectly positioned to smash this over.
