The Golden State Warriors and Minnesota Timberwolves are neck and neck in the Western Conference playoff race heading into Sunday’s game.
Both teams are down star players, which can open up some value in the prop market.
Here are my two favorite prop bets, both points props, for this Sunday night matchup:
Timberwolves vs. Warriors best NBA prop bets
- Mike Conley UNDER 12.5 Points
- Donte DiVincenzo OVER 11.5 Points
Mike Conley UNDER 12.5 Points
Mike Conley has played in four games with the Wolves, scoring nine, 12, zero and 15 points in four games.
Conley has only taken double-digit shots in one of those games, primarily playing a facilitator role for Minnesota.
Golden State’s defense takes a major step forward at home this season, so I’ll fade Conley in this prop.
Donte DiVincenzo OVER 11.5 Points
Donte DiVincenzo has picked up the slack for the Warriors at the guard spot with Steph Curry out due to a leg injury, clearing 11.5 points in six out of his last 10 games.
DiVincenzo doesn’t take a ton of shots for Golden State, but he’s been extremely efficient this season, shooting 41.5 percent from beyond the arc.
The Wolves and Warriors both play at a fast pace, so DiVincenzo should get plenty of shots on Sunday night.
