Betting Tips

Steph Curry is averaging 22.0 points per game this season and has an over/under of 22.5 points against the Minnesota Timberwolves. Curry only had two points in his previous game, so he'll likely bounce back with a big game. Bet on the four-time NBA champ to score at least 23 points.

Andrew Wiggins has been the Golden State Warriors' second option on offense this season. Wiggins is averaging 17.8 ppg this season and is favored to go under 15.5 points. He has scored at least 16 points in his past two games, so go against the odds and bet on over.

Anthony Edwards is favored to score less than 25.5 points on Saturday night. Edwards is averaging 25.9 ppg this season and has gone over 25.5 points three times in his last five games. Have faith in "Ant-Man" and place your money on him to go for at least 26 points.

Julius Randle has an over/under 20.5 points, which is higher than his season average of 20.2 ppg. Randle is favored to go under 20.5 points, but has scored at least 21 points in two of his last three games. Go against the odds and bet on Randle to go over.
