FanDuel (at -122). Even in a tough matchup, this is a low line for Ayo Dosunmu, who has been crashing the boards for the undermanned Timberwolves of late. Ayo has cleared this line in four straight without Anthony Edwards, with 10+ rebound chances in each game. Look for him to make it five straight tonight.
Jalen Duren has had an All-NBA caliber season and has emerged as one of the leagues best Centers. That being said, he’s still a bit raw from a shot making standpoint. He’ll face a difficult matchup against a Minnesota team that defends the paint well, which is where Duren does the majority of his scoring.
Anthony Edwards is questionable to suit up tonight against the Pistons. If he does return to the court, I believe there is a strong likelihood he is on a minutes limit as he appeared to be on a hard cap in his previous appearance. This would also qualify as a difficult matchup versus a very good Pistons defense.
