Will regression kick in this year? Below, our NBA experts break down the Timberwolves' betting odds, win total pick, and best NBA futures bet for the 2025-26 season.

💰 Timberwolves win total prediction

Here's why our NBA expert Corey Scott expects the Timberwolves to finish Under 49.5 wins as one of his NBA win total predictions for the 2025-26 season:

⬇️ Under 49.5 wins

The Timberwolves finished 49-33 last season after winning just eight of their first 19 games. However, they traded away Nickeil Alexander-Walker, who was a key wing defender for them, and may be slightly overrated by the market after beating a short-handed Warriors team in the conference semifinals. Even with two straight conference finals trips under their belt, they're 2-8 in those appearances - I'm selling high on Minnesota.

✅ Prediction: Under 49.5 wins (-110 via BetMGM)


🔮 Best Timberwolves futures bet

Here's why our NBA expert Liam Fox is betting on Anthony Edwards to lead the NBA in 3-pointers as one of his best NBA futures bets for the 2025-26 season:

🏅 Anthony Edwards to lead NBA in 3-pointers

Anthony Edwards already led the league in threes last year for the first time in his career. Yes, he played in seven more games than Stephen Curry - the perennial favorite in this market - but I was shocked to find this prop at +425 odds, which gives Edwards less than a 20% chance to repeat in this market. Lock this one in now before those odds shorten during the season.

✅ Best bet: Anthony Edwards to lead NBA in 3-pointers (+425 via DraftKings)
