Kyrie Lighting Up T-wolves
The first leg of today’s SGP is Irving to go over 24.5 points. Kyrie hit the 30-point mark in both Games 1 and 3, and added 20 in Game 2. His usage is way up compared to the OKC series in the second round. Irving has taken at least 16 shots in every game against Minnesota. That only happened once in six games against the Thunder. Most importantly, Jason Kidd’s efforts to get Kyrie more involved in the offense are working. He’s shooting 52.5% from the floor, including 43.8% from three.
As I’ll touch on below, I don’t expect this to be a high-scoring game overall. But with Doncic still listed on the injury report as questionable due to both knee and ankle issues, Irving’s usage is going to stay high, and he’s a good bet to go over 24.5 for the third time in four games.
Ant-Man Struggling
Anthony Edwards’ performance in the first three games of the series leaves a lot to be desired. While Ant is averaging a team-high 22 points per game (only a few points lower than his 25.9 PPG regular-season average), he’s shooting just 37.5% from the floor and 33.3% from three. His highlight reel dunk in the third quarter of Game 3 felt like a turning point in the series – it was part of an 11-1 run that tied the game at 77 – but Dallas proved more clutch down the stretch of a 116-107 victory, just as it was in Games 1 and 2, which it won by a combined four points.
The Timberwolves contingent is making some serious noise here in Dallas.
Anthony Edwards has completely taken over to tie this game at 77, while the Mavs clank away at the other end.

I don’t expect a huge performance from Edwards in Game 4. The T-wolves have enough complementary pieces to use that they don’t need to force-feed Edwards if he isn’t hot. In a must-win Game 7 against the Nuggets last round, Edwards finished with just 16 points yet the T-wolves found a way to win and advance.
Expect an Under to Finally Hit
The first three games of the series all featured game totals of 207 or 207.5 and all three went over, averaging 217.7 points per game. But in this elimination game, I expect a much better effort from Minnesota’s defense. The last time Minnesota faced elimination, it held Nikola Jokic and company to just 90 points in a 98-90 Game 7 victory. In Game 6 of that series, also facing elimination, they held the Nuggets to just 70.
The main reason why I’ve largely been backing the T-wolves all postseason is their early-2000’s-Pistons-esque defense. It has one more chance to show up, and I fully believe that it will.

The Minnesota Timberwolves and the Dallas Mavericks are set to face off in Game 4 of their NBA playoff series, and fans and bettors alike are eagerly anticipating the outcome. One popular betting option for this game is the same-game parlay, which allows bettors to combine multiple bets into one wager for potentially higher payouts. In this article, we will take a closer look at the three-leg +730 same-game parlay for this matchup.
The first leg of this same-game parlay is the Timberwolves to win the game. The Timberwolves have been playing well in this series, with key players like Karl-Anthony Towns and Anthony Edwards stepping up their game. They have shown that they can compete with the Mavericks and have a good chance of coming out on top in Game 4. While the Mavericks have been strong as well, the Timberwolves have the momentum and home-court advantage in this game.
The second leg of the parlay is for the total points scored in the game to go over 220. Both teams have been scoring well in this series, with high-scoring games being a common occurrence. The Timberwolves have been averaging over 110 points per game, while the Mavericks have been scoring even more. With both teams having potent offenses and questionable defenses, it is likely that this game will be a high-scoring affair.
The final leg of the parlay is for Karl-Anthony Towns to score over 25 points in the game. Towns has been a dominant force for the Timberwolves in this series, averaging over 30 points per game. He has been nearly unstoppable on the offensive end, using his size and skill to score at will. With the Mavericks struggling to contain him, Towns should have no problem reaching the 25-point mark in Game 4.
Overall, this three-leg +730 same-game parlay offers a solid combination of bets for bettors looking to capitalize on the Timberwolves vs Mavericks matchup. With the Timberwolves looking to take control of the series and Karl-Anthony Towns continuing his dominant play, this parlay has a good chance of hitting. Bettors should consider placing a wager on this parlay for a chance at a nice payout in Game 4.
