SportsLine Backs Edwards for 27+ Points in Game 6 as Timberwolves Face Elimination

7 articles · Updated · SportsLine · May 16
  • Anthony Edwards is the headline pick for Game 6, with SportsLine noting he has scored 27 or more points in six of eight career elimination games and topped 30 in all three postseason games with 40-plus minutes.
  • Ayo Dosunmu is another featured over play after posting 9, 5 and 7 rebounds in his last three games; SportsLine says his 30-minute role and 11.3 rebound chances per game make a 5-rebound line attractive.
  • The outlet also points to Dosunmu’s assists-rebounds combo, citing 7.0 rebounds and 4.0 assists over the last three games as Minnesota leans on him with Mike Conley Jr.'s minutes limited.
  • On the Spurs side, Dylan Harper is backed to clear 15.5 points plus rebounds after doing so in four of five games this series, while Julius Randle is projected under again after shooting 36.6% in the matchup.
