Mavericks vs. Timberwolves Player Props & Odds: Game 5 Expert Picks for Thursdayiv class=”bodyContent col-lg-9 mb-3″>

The Minnesota Timberwolves managed to extend the Western Conference Finals against the Dallas Mavericks and now head home for Game 5, and we're offering our top Mavericks vs. Timberwolves player props based on the best NBA odds.

With their season on the line, the Minnesota Timberwolves stayed alive with a 105-100 win over the Dallas Mavericks in Game 4 of the Western Conference Finals. Down 3-1 in the series, Minnesota returns home to Target Center in Minneapolis for Game 5 on Thursday at 8:30 p.m. ET (TNT).

Riding the momentum of the win, Minnesota is a 4.5-point home favorite and will need Anthony Edwards to continue playing like an NBA Finals MVP odds contender. But it's the Mavericks who hold all the power and have the second-shortest NBA championship odds.

Here are our best Mavericks vs. Timberwolves player props and NBA picks  (odds via our best NBA betting sites; pick confidence based on a 1-to-5-star scale).

Mavericks vs. Timberwolves prop bet predictions for Thursday

Even when he's having one of the worst shooting performance of his postseason career, Luka Doncic is still putting up numbers you could only dream of doing on NBA2K MyCareer mode. While Doncic shot just 33.3% from the floor in Game 4, he still managed to finish with a triple-double.

The Slovenian superstar has taken on a bigger workload in the series than Cam Newton at Auburn. His usage is through the roof (31.5 combined shots and free throws), and when he's not scoring, he's racking up assists with his lob game. On top of it all, he's the leading rebounder in the series with 9.5 per game.

Through four games, Doncic is averaging 50 PRA and has topped 49.5 in two of his last three games. These odds imply a 51.22% probability he'll hit the Over, according to our odds calculator, with a $10 bet paying out $19.52.

The Ant-Man is back. After the win, he told Dallas Cowboys star Micah Parsons that he'd see him back in Dallas for Game 6. Edwards is oozing confidence once again, and why shouldn't he? He was the star of Game 5, doing his best Doncic impression with 29 points, 10 rebounds, and nine assists.

Despite some early scoring struggles in the series, Edwards has been the Timberwolves best rebounder and playmaker. He leads Minnesota in both categories in the series with 8.8 rebounds and 8.3 assists per game and has gone Over 14.5 in three of four games.

After taking the Over on this prop in Game 4, I was elated to find this +102 outlier price. Our other best sportsbooks have it as short as -123, which implies a 55.16% win probability. But our price pays a $10.20 profit on a $10 bet.

Best odds: +102 via FanDuel

It was nice to see Karl-Anthony Towns show up and actually hit a few shots between fouls. KAT only played 30 minutes before fouling out of the game, and while he was effective, I don't expect him to replicate his Game 4 performance. 

Still weary of his shooting slump and foul issues, I'm backing Naz Reid to be a key contributor in Game 5. Minnesota will need him to score, not just to win, but to justify all of the Naz Reid tattoos. The Sixth Man of the Year is averaging 14.5 points per game in the series and has gone Over 10.5 in four of his last five games.

With Reid shooting 55.3% from the floor, he's poised to get his fair share of looks in Game 5. These odds imply a 53.05% probability this prop hits with a $10 bet paying out $18.85.

Best odds: -113 via FanDuel
