Today’s Best NBA First Basket Scorer Player Prop Bets: Raptors vs. Timberwolves

Here are a few first-basket bets to consider for tonight’s NBA slate.

Raptors vs. Timberwolves

This will be the first game between the Raptors and Timberwolves this season. Minnesota has been incredible at winning the tip, earning 31-of-46 tips this season. That’s 67% of the time. Minnesota also takes 65% of the first shot and scores 61% of the first baskets.

Toronto has won the tip 53% of the time and has taken the first shot 53% of the time too. Therefore, the Timberwolves have a much higher probability of scoring first.

The Timberwolves will likely be without Rudy Gobert, leaving Anthony Edwards as the guy. He’s added seven first baskets this season.

Bet: Anthony Edwards (+600)
