For Timberwolves parlay picks built around a Minnesota win, look at McDaniels’ rebounds and assists in Wolves wins and Cooper Flagg’s passing in Dallas losses. McDaniels got to nine combined in every Minnesota win he played this season. Flagg stayed below seven assists in all three Dallas losses he played in.
Player props to compare for a Timberwolves win
| Player & prop | Odds | By team result | All games |
|---|---|---|---|
| Jaden McDaniels Over 8.5 rebounds and assists |
+104 | 100.0% 8 of 8 Minnesota wins |
90.9% 10 of 11 appearances |
| Cooper Flagg Under 6.5 assists |
−154 | 100.0% 3 of 3 Dallas losses |
60.0% 6 of 10 appearances |
Jaden McDaniels: Over 8.5 rebounds and assists
DraftKings priced the combined over at +104 and over 4.5 rebounds at −153. Both lines cleared in the same 10 of 11 appearances, including all eight wins. At +104 you get a bigger payout if the combined line hits, and assists can help get him to nine if the rebounds are slow to come.
Five wins landed right on nine, so the combined line has had less room than the perfect win record suggests. McDaniels also had only six combined in 39 minutes against San Antonio. Across last season and this one, he cleared the combined line in 23 of 58 Minnesota wins. The current results are a better look at this season’s rotation, with Anthony Edwards out for this matchup, but they’re still a small sample.
Cooper Flagg: Under 6.5 assists
Flagg stayed under seven in all three Dallas losses he’s played in this season, with two assists against Houston, six against Sacramento and five against San Antonio. The Sacramento game is the one to keep in mind at −154: even a hit can come within one assist of the line.
Flagg has also had 12 assists against Brooklyn and 11 against Miami this season. Across last season and this one, he stayed under seven in 43 of 51 Dallas losses, so there’s a larger sample behind the loss split. Still, this line is about his passing. If you expect Dallas to run much of its offense through him as a creator, the under gives you little room for that version of the game.
