Edwards has been sensational at home, averaging an impressive 33 points and 5.6 rebounds in his last five games in Minnesota. His ability to elevate his game on familiar turf is undeniable, evidenced by a hitting rate of 4 out of 5 on home soil.Moreover, against the Hornets, he's consistently performed well, racking up an average of 22.6 points in their recent matchups. Factor in his overall performance lately-averaging 24.4 points and 4 rebounds, and you can see why we expect him to surpass that 28.5 mark.

Rudy Gobert (Minnesota Timberwolves) Under 11.5 Rebounds (+102)

Odds available at draftkings at time of publishing

As the Minnesota Timberwolves prepare to host the Charlotte Hornets, all eyes will be on Rudy Gobert, a dynamic force in the paint. However, betting on him to snag over 11.5 rebounds might not be the smartest call. Despite averaging 14.4 boards at home lately, the matchup against the Hornets presents a different challenge. Gobert has recorded just 11.2 rebounds on average against Charlotte in their last five encounters, and that number dips to 12.4 when factoring in home games. With an expected stat value of 10.26, it's clear he could fall short of that threshold. Given the Hornets' propensity to spread the floor and limit his opportunities to dominate the glass, it's reasonable to expect Gobert to land under 11.5 rebounds in this matchup. Sometimes, even the best have off nights, and this could be one of those instances for the big man.

LaMelo Ball (Charlotte Hornets) Under 4.5 Rebounds (+117)

Odds available at draftkings at time of publishing

As LaMelo Ball heads into an away matchup against the Minnesota Timberwolves, the spotlight is on his rebounding numbers, particularly the under on 4.5. While he has shown flashes of brilliance, averaging 4.4 boards in his last five games, his away performances tell a different story. Despite a decent 5.6 average on the road, the Timberwolves boast a formidable frontcourt, making it tough for him to find space. Historically, he's snatched just 6.8 rebounds against Minnesota when away, and with an expected stat value of 4.12, he's trending below the mark. His recent hit rate of 3 out of 5 suggests a struggle to consistently clear this threshold. So, with the odds favoring the under and the Timberwolves' size on the glass, it feels like the right time to lean into LaMelo's rebounding woes.
