Nuggets vs. Timberwolves prop bet predictions for Sunday
Edwards took the blame for his team's 27-point loss on Friday, saying he “came out with no energy at all” in a 19-point effort on 8-of-15 shooting in Game 3.
I'd be shocked if we don't see a dramatic reversal of fortune for Edwards, who was drawing Michael Jordan comparisons after averaging 32.3 points through the first six games of the postseason. He cleared this total in four of them, including a 43-point masterpiece in Game 1 of this series.
This is a major outlier price from DraftKings, as FanDuel is offering a total of 28.5 and bet365 is dealing Over 27.5 at -130, which carries a 56.52% implied probability, per our odds converter. These -112 odds return a $8.93 profit on a $10 wager.

After combining to score just 25 points in the first two games of this series, Murray bounced back in a big way with 24 points in Game 3. His 52.4% shooting percentage was his best in this postseason, and he scored 18 of those 24 points by intermission:
He scored just six points in the second half, though, and admitted after the game that his left calf strain – which clearly ailed him earlier in this series – tightened up near the end of the game. That came after three days off between Games 2 and 3, and he'll have just one day to rest ahead of Game 4.
That's why I love the Under at these -104 odds, which imply a 50.98% chance that he'll score 21 or fewer points on Sunday with a $9.62 profit on a $10 bet.
Best odds: -104 via FanDuel

If the Timberwolves hope to keep Murray at bay, they'll need a better showing from McDaniels, who battled early foul trouble to play just 21 minutes in Game 3 – his eighth-fewest in 81 total games this season.
He still managed to block two shots on Friday, his fourth consecutive game with at least one rejection. The 6-9 wing has been a defensive menace in this series and throughout the entire postseason, which comes after he blocked six shots in his final seven regular-season games.
BetMGM is offering generous +100 odds on this bet, which implies a 50% chance that McDaniels will extend his blocks streak to five games and pays out $10 for every $10 wagered if he does.
Best odds: +100 via BetMGM
